[markyboi]

It's about time too. Sky have always kept sneaking up the prices. I'm with branson on this one but it will hurt me slightly.

I don't watch many satellite channels at all but I do follow Lost and Battlestar Galactica on Sky one. It really annoyed me that Sky bought up Lost over channel 4. It's not enough to make me go with sky because the rest of their content is pants.

I just have to find some way of getting these two series some other way ;-) If it comes to the worst my sister can tape them for me.

Well, bit of news, we have just aquired rights to show them on demand once they finish airing on sky

Sorted. That way there are no poxy adverts either, thats even better. Not that sky show too many adverts or anything, christ sometimes I'd forget what it was I was watching they went on for so long.

lot of people are saying that

Bah the swines have taken off the feature that lets you rearrange the channels into the order you want.

The favourites menu doesnt quite cut the mustard as I want to have the channels I watch the most all up the front. BBC2W is a pile of shite and BBC2 England is now right down the bottom instead of next to BBC1 like I used to have it. Hmpff.

that only goes for ex-ntl: customers due to the way the ex-ntl: system works, ex-telewest customers only get their regional channels
