but can you prove sky can not produce quailty material with less money? unoless you have access to sky bank accoutn then the truth is none of know, and from wha ti r4ead of ofcom reports sky have been over pricing for a while even there own customer the prices ofcom want ot set maybe a little low but sky will still makea good profit but sky want max profits and that why they oppose and htey also dnt want otehr havign access and to undercut them.

the only point i agree in is that sky investment ina product should get return like hd but it has now gotten a return and more so it time it regulated so other can have access mean the customer can choose wher ethey get there content from (i dnt think 3d should be regulated until 2012 at the earilst probally more 2014)
