The bastards. The only thing that's stopping me getting Sky at the momement is the fact I've not got a BT line. I'd have to change phoneline providers which would mean I might not be able to access the internet!

freesat will be ace once its fully developed.with freebie footy readily available i might ditch the sky soon
And with freesat HD at £150 you cannot go wrong. |

Freesat HD = BBC HD, C4 HD (hardly any HD content) and ITV HD (part time). Waste of time for HD at the moment really.
Hopefully it'll improve though, and with freesat PVRs coming it might scare Sky into dropping their £10 HD fee (ripoff).

But with Freesat HD you still get the non hd channels right?

Depends on the current climate. If you use words like credit crunch and cancel they may offer you something like cheaper Movies (if you have them). But there is a risk they may offer you f'all and cancel you! |

if sky scrap the £10 a month fee for hd and give me a box for fuck all i'd be happy.
freesat getting better over time will force them to do something eventually i reckon

but once you get Sky+ you wonder how you ever lived without it
Miss angry they wanted the same thing from me but managed to recommend a friend - ring up and threaten to disconnect and they will normally sort you out

On all the Sky literature it states you need a BT line. |

You are correct Mr Hertha, Sky insist you have a BT line....heaven knows why though. |
