What we are complaining about is the way programmes are placed on Sky channels because Sky has far more money and therefore bidding power than any of the other platforms.

Two examples.House and Lost.Both were being shown on other platforms and channels.Between one series and the next Sky outbid for them and they disappeared behind the Sky platform.Very hard on those who were watching them on Channel 5 and Channel 4 and had no access to Sky.
While I fully understand your point it is called business. We have exclusive rights to some products in the UK. We out bid an other supplier whom had it before .He sold to anyone now some outlets can no longer supply it. You want it you buy it from US. That`s how it works in the real world,sorry but its true Next people will be telling football clubs that they cant have a player because someone else cannot afford to buy him
