In a word, no.
I'm not worried about the money. I've already wasted £30 on a digital receiver which is currently useless and the recession is little more than media hype

Are you in halls then? Usually there's a coaxial socket on the wall for the aerial. Unless your halls really are shit. Do other people have televisions?
Also are you sure you're a man?

That is a good point, especially now you can watch bbc live on their website. I'm not really a fan of watching stuff on the internet, coz the qualitys usually shit and its a lot less spontaneous

I don't watch much online, I think its because my computer and internet connection are quite unreliable, and I generally have an aversion to doing everything online. I think time away from the computer, as addictive as it can be, is quite important, and I quite enjoy limited choices, like you get from flicking channels. The only problem with the internet (and I write as a big internet fan) is that with so much choice, you end up not knowing what to do/listen to/watch. Its the same thought process that stops me from shopping online.
"You can do everything online" is a phrase that scares the shit out of me - as though leaving your house to do things is the most impracticle incovenience.
And yes, I do see the irony of this uncalled-for rant being posted at 1am on an internet forum. I've had much beer, you understand.

I think it's ironic that you'd watch tv to get away from a computer screen  |

Now i'm a bit worried because my digital radio doesn't get any signal, despite it saying theres 42 stations found when it scans. And the fact i can supposedly still pick up bristol based radio stations despite living in slough

I think it's ironic that you'd watch tv to get away from a computer screen Having read it back, it isn't an entirely logical argument. Beer logical is fallible, alas. Time away from the computer today was had in the form of a good game of tennis. Far more logical. Now for some beer and some more beer logic. |
