Cancelled sky!
Discussion
+1 for freesat, I splashed out on the Foxsat HD box, its pretty good, but quite pricey.
Picture quality seems better on most channels than SKY ever did, especially on the second TV in the bedroom via the scart to coax tranceiver I shoved on the back.
You can watch BBC iplayer via the Foxsat boxes too if you plug them into your broadband router.
Next step, cancel BT broadband and get something better or cheaper, or both!

It would be nice though if there was more than 1 full time HD channel. Anyone know what the plans are for offering more?Picture quality seems better on most channels than SKY ever did, especially on the second TV in the bedroom via the scart to coax tranceiver I shoved on the back.

I just sky to cancel my tv only 3 months into a 12 month sky HD contract.
Basically they decided that they couldn't be bothered to install a phone line as originally agreed so I accused them of mis-selling and threatened trading standards.
They cancelled with immediate effect, cancelled the last tv bill and are sending someone to de-install the dish.

For what I'm paying, you don't get VFM anymore.
Years ago people bought Sky because they were bored with the same old rubbish on 4 channels. A bit more range and choice. Now it is simply a matter of hundreds of channels of rubbish and repeats now repeating the same stuff that the 4 channels have been for years, and it gets on your nerves when you are paying two people, the BBC and Sky, for the privilege of having nothing to watch.

I still can't get my head around the idea of paying for television. Am I an old fart, a Scrooge or sensible?
