Sky versus Virgin

[Sippo]

You say that, but's its not the case.

In one location BT Openreach have upgraded, but the school cannot upgrade as the cabinet is too full. Local residents have been put before the school.

[Honkytonk]

I'm not saying that isn't true, in fact I'm not disagreeing with you at all as far as I am aware. Openreach does seem to be a law unto themselves sometimes.

Still completely baffles me why anyone would pay for TV. Internet wise, VM dicks all over sky.

You're no media mogul then.... I don't understand why it would baffle anyone that HD and 3D sport and movies on your tv without having to,illegally stream from dodgy sites would not be attractive - it's only about £50 a month.

[Samdy Gray]

I wouldn't want to (and don't) pay £50 per month to watch movies and sport in HD and 3D.

Freeview and Netflix do me just fine. For the occasional bit of live sport I want to watch that isn't on terrestrial TV, I'll buy a Sky pass for about a tenner.

I have BT TV, Netflix and on an ad-hoc basis pay for Now TV. I like what I get, sometimes miss Sky Sports, especially whilst the NFL is on, but I do have my parents SkyGo log in on my iPad and desktop computer, so it's not all bad.

We'd better let Murdoch know his business model is fucked then

Might have been where I lived but virgin fibre BB was appalling, down for days sometimes, and intermittent issues for the 2 years I had it, and by intermittent I mean down for 10 minutes an hour, every hour. Pretty much every  day.

 Don't know owt about the technology, but it looks like there'll be a few Sky customers on here, who'll be getting a bill from Ben Dover
