Mutv
 
Just noticed MUTV on my EPG lineup (channel 44)... is this a permanent thing (ie moved to a different subscription package) or just a freeview?

Well spotted, I have it as well. We had it as a freebie taster over Christmas, not seen any news about this latest showing.

Neither have Sky for that matter. I would have watched it if I had known but I have missed the first half now. Should have read this thread earlier.

OK it not on channel ntl:, but they have had the info up on this page since the beginning of the month!

I admit a flyer with the bill wouldn't go amiss :)

If MUTV want to have a freeview why should ntl spend their own money in promoting it?

This site slating ntl without all the facts. How unusual..... :rolleyes:

I would imagine that NTL get a share of the revenue generated by their customers that subscribe to MUTV. Freeviews are there to let non-subscribers see what they are missing and hopefully persuade them to subscribe. If more customers subscribe then NTL would get more revenue from their share of the new subscribers payments. What would it cost NTL to slip a small advert on the ntlworld.com home page and on customers bills?

Well as much as it is nice to see it there, I wouldn't subscribe even if Aizad paid me... what with being a lifelong QPR fan an' all! LOL! (I can hear the booing now!)
