Not trying to take the moral high ground. If somebody wishes to give Murdoch money good luck to them I dont and think that football and cricket our national sports should be on terrestrial TV and only on Sky after BBC and TV have had the opportunity to screen it and refused. I also think...

# The only one of interest to me was Spurs and watched that on a stream for free

I had Sky up until 2003 and then stopped it as I didn't think it was value for money and have seen it since and not been impressed enough to start paying again but as I say it is only my opinion. I have more than enough channels to watch on freeview.

Because without Sky you would get the same programs on terrestrial TV without paying £80 per month. Do you think that generally the programs they provide are better than BBC or ITV disregarding live football or cricket.

It wont happen but if people boycotted Sky subscriptions they wouldn't be able to out tender BBC and TV so more football cricket etc could be shown on terrestrial TV.

Can anybody say that the programs shown on Sky are better than those shown on BBC or ITV just a different mix. It would be interesting if BBC or ITV dedicated one of its channels like BBC 3 or ITV 3 to sport how the subscription rate to Sky would drop.

Thats my point having the internet enables me to watch it without paying and while that is possible I am saving money I dont wish to spend. Thanks to those who pointed me in the right direction to stream it.

That is the difference being an OAP I pay £26 for all phone calls, broadband and have a digibox to get and record freeview, why should I pay the extra to watch perhaps 1 programme a week and possibly a football match once in a while. I cannot watch all the pograms available on free view so...

I believe that what Sky provide should be provided by terrestial TV.

Sorry cant see the relevance as I dont think that anybody should have to pay for TV, having paid for a licence as decreed by the law of the land ALL TV should be included free.

Ok thanks that counts me out because I begrudge paying them money.

Havent got Sky out of principal but wondered if it is available on the internet anywhere similar to BBC I player
