There was a site that listed free pre-subscribed account information to sections like the Grauniad and the US papers. Can't find its address though.

I'm a bit ambivalent about all this. On the one hand, OFCOM are looking out for and protecting my best interests. That's good as far as I can see. But on the flip side, state interference into business affairs is bad. Companies & people should be able to value their goods and services at X, and be able to market it as such. Sky should be no different just because they are richer than most companies. Companies don't become rich by being unpopular.

Maybe its because I straddle the divide and run businesses and come from a family of business people, and appreciate the importance of capitalism.
