    That's a bit unnecessary: not everyone is content to hand over money to Murdoch every month: ESPN as a standalone is relatively good value at £9.99 a month.

  • What's the point of Freesat then if ITV are pulling out of it to go subscription only when ITV plc are one of the two broadcasters in the Freesat conglomerate?

    Ain't going to happen - the (very) small audience for these channels is almost exclusively via Freeview - who has a card slot on a freeview box/TV set nowadays? Only those with old ONdigital boxes (which won't work after the switch over) or saddos who are subscribing to Top Up tv.
    Its included in Sky packages but I can't see Murdoch paying more to carry the channels!

    May I ask why you are calling Top Up TV subscribers saddos?
