Do you have SKY television?

[Barrel of Fun]

No. Freeview is adequate for my needs and I have absolutely no desire to spend £500+ on television.

 

[SICKASAGULL]

The complete package with Sports and Movies costs £45 per month,the football alone is worth it, so I do not miss the so called football at Withdean.

 

[surrey jim]

£50 ish a month, got sky+ with the movies and sport package

 

[Boroseagull]

Yes have Sky on the £75 no contract deal available at some retailers. Pay £9.99 month for Sultana Sports again on no contract. Suits me.

 

[tedebear]

Yes we do, £36 per month for basic sky plus the sports channels...

 

[Hunting 784561]

I think Sky currently has about 7 million UK subscribers - so if the average subscription is coming in at about £40 pm, then that is an awful lot of money ..



£40 x 7 million = £ 280,000,00 per month = £ 3,360,000,000 each year

before expenses of course...

........ so I do not miss the so called football at Withdean.

 

[portslade seagull]

80 squid sky+ and 3 multi rooms for my sons who all work and pay for the privalage

 

[Evil Edna]

No, if there is something I desperately want to watch then I use the interweb. Some of what Sky has to offer is very good, but ultimately it is overpriced.

Ditto on that, plus the web has a lot more choice.

 

[SNOOBS]

I think ours costs about £40 for the sky digital thing but I don't pay I don't have it next to my pc though so mostly just watch freeview other than football + cricket on sky

Of course I bloody have. £53 I think, and I'd pay TWICE that for the privilege of Sky+ alone. You must surely realise that Sky+ is the greatest invention since the light bulb. Nothing else has come close in the last hundred years or so, as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Dr Q]

Sky + plus Multiroom. Movies and sports. £55 per month I think (haven't checked for a while!)

The Humax PVR is arguably better and once you've paid your c£200 you never have to pay another penny. No good for Sky channels though, but top-notch for Freeview.

(No Sky here, just Freeview. Can't imagine ever paying c£45 per month to Sky again)

That means no football. And no movies. I'm sorry Bozza, you'll have to do better than that.

 

[Cian]

I have about 1000 satellite channels, quite a few fairly decent, have all the Irish and British terrestrials digitally; get all the sports I want. It costs me 18 euro a month - for Setanta. The rest is free. Sky get not a penny from me.

Sky+ is just a knock-off of TiVo, which existed ~3 years before Sky+ did; my non-Sky decoders do it and they never charged me 15 euro a month for the privilidge like Sky used to.

 

[Easy 10]

But Sky+ just does is BETTER

MotD provides pretty much all of the Premiership football I want and ditto ITV for the Champions League. On the very rare occasion there is something I want to watch live I'll go to the pub or watch on the web. The latter is poor, of course, compared to a digital broadcast on a big screen but it does the job.

Movies - I've got hundred of DVDs including numerous films I've never watched. If I had Sky Movies, I can't believe I'd often watch anything, as was the case when I used to have Sky.

Plus you get Film4, which shows some extremely good movies.
