Have you ever had Sky digital?

And do you use open source software becuase of your deep rooted belief that Bill Gates is a paid up member of the shape-shifting reptillion Illuminati?

Yes for 10 years since the analogue days............I decided to switch 2 years ago and havent looked back, as personally I dont get to excited about red buttons and couldnt care less if I go out and miss a TV show because I know that whatever I am doing is probably better anyway.

I hated Sky, and im definately not the only one who has recived crap service from them.

I do use Open Source Software wherever possible, unfortunately in this world of Sheep and Robots you sometimes need to use Windoze at work or to run software you need to use to communicate with others effectively.

Funny enough, I'm of the same opinion about NTL, and I'm definately not the only one who has received crap service from them ;)

When I switched from dial up to broadband I kept the same accounts, so I don't see why it should be any different, but then this is NTL we're talking about ;)

These days though I have my own domain name so I can move that about no matter what ISP I use.

You can definitely keep any existing email addresses if you go to cable modem.
