rokhed00 Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Well, you know all those UKTV channels? and Living channel? Virgin owns those and they're on Sky. Basically, Sky now wants double the amount of money it asked previously and both companies just aren't budging, either way someones gunna lose something. Well, Virgin did offer Sky more money, but it just wasn't enough for them. No big loss anyway, Sky One is mainly repeats and only has four shows I watch, much as I disagree with downloading TV I'll do that before I switch to Sky.
Guest Jordan Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Oh of course but Sky will always pay over the odds to beat the competition to get certain programs just like Channel 4 (E4) do. I completely agree. To be honest, this isn't battle of the companies any more. Its Branson versus Murdoc.
Guest Stefkov Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Just found some more news on the thing going on between Sky Virgin Media, I havnt read through it so it may be new it may be old. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/23022007/379/sky-responds-virgin-media-27.html Since when was there a Sky Arts channel?
Platty Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I completely agree.To be honest, this isn't battle of the companies any more. Its Branson versus Murdoc. No doubt and although I am a sky customer I wish Richard the best of luck being British and all that.
Rummy Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Ah this sucks, Surley is analoge 1-5 is ok Digital should be... How good is your channel 5? Mine's a bit shit, and I thought it'd contribute to having bad freeview when I got it, but we have 3 boxes in our house including mine, and as far as I'm aware they all work fine(all run from the same aerial using a signal booster in the loft). Sky are gay for that whole virgin fiasco, what a bunch of knobs.
