Logos on screens is like living next to a railway track. You stop noticing the trains going by after a few hours. :p:

That`s a very big loss and it does make you wonder how BT can do any better,doesn`t it?

The thing with ESPN is they might be part of a huge company but did they ever have enough nous to survive in the UK marketplace.

They're part of a multi billion pound company, if they really wanted to they could have easily blown Sky out of the water

Especially given how much more BT have had to pay for the same kind of product.

I was saying this a few weeks ago, about BT Sports having a 3rd channel - and would it be part of the deal with Sky and VM - l doubt it.

They haven't got enough content to warrant having another channel

They will need a lot more varied content for another channel. If there is no football on there is very little else apart from Ruby, but this is only at the weekend.

They don't have a deal with Sky though, only VM.

I've recently downgraded from TV XL to M, but since then it was announced that BT is to be free on XL. I understand it would cost me an extra £15/month to just add BT, or £23 to get XL again. Any ideas whether I might get any deals on these prices (I am a long-standing customer), and if so what is the best email address to use. Thanks.
