Out of all the subscirbers only a couple percent will stop there sub with a price rise so i dont think they have any reason to worry

I would have thought they'd be keen to get that, and their youview box, out sooner rather than later, because despite all the investment they must be losing out to talk talk youview with now TV.

Details announced now

Cheers-confirms that now TV is on the Bt youview as well as the talk talk box, also includes the Bt vision on demand library. If you're in an infinity area thats a good deal.

Apparently ESPN have the rights to Russian KHL. I'm not a fan of hockey but I'm sure this will mean something to those who miss the NHL?

Managed to find a link:
