[QUOTE="Mark_C89, post: 889576, member: 402381"] In danger of opening a can of worms here (as I'm sure this has been discussed before and could be endlessly spoken about) I don't really understand why there is any need to make anything other than any BBC related content restricted to a UK spot beam. Being that BBC is the only thing in the UK that people pay for that doesn't have encryption. ITV and Channel 4 why? I'm sure of course that their are some broadcasting complications with rights etc. but again if it was that much of a problem wouldn't they try to get as much as possible on UK spot beam? Also surely SKY are well aware people outside of the UK use there service, there are websites left, right and centre that even do this for you, and SKY aren't in anyway (that I'm aware of) attempting to protest this use of their service. Of course why would they? money is money, although I am intrigued to know how much money SKY roughly make from people outside of the UK using their service. Well I do hope with the 2G beam, I get DAVE HD and the others back, I am (one of them) big HD buffs :) Their argument might be floored with only 3 channels being moved :D [/QUOTE]
