Shifting series from Sky One, which is available on all broadcast platforms, to Sky Atlantic, which is exclusive to Sky's own broadcasting platform only, contravenes the spirit of the regulator's past rulings in this area even if it does not offend against the letter.

I wonder how this stacks up against Virgin & a free channel to L subscribers for month Its called a free sample,or taster is it not ?

Sky ( as are Virgin ) are out to make as much money as they can. You never HAVE to watch SKY so I fail to see how it is monopolistic.I am sure it would like to be, So SKY would have to buy Freeview & own every satellite/channel beaming to UK before that would even start to happen.


If you are really not happy with them, then NEVER watch any of their channels If the viewing figure went way down ,so would their income. Personally I NEVER use Tesco for anything It makes me feel good at least. Always try to shop local ( Yes I can afford it,& its called putting my money were my mouth is)
