What industry does that?

And yes, it is quite possible you might have to pay all providers.

As you do when you want to watch exclusives (eg netflix etc)[COLOR="Silver"]
Companies have to meet the expectations of the shareholders, but OFCOM and the Competition Commission are there to protect our interests. They are not doing a very good job of it.

Do you hear me complaining?

No..if I want it free, I switch to virgin..I pay for it

That is the rules. Like them..or lump them
Yes, but you can at least get ESPN, whether you are on the Sky or VM platforms. We can't get Sky Atlantic even when we are prepared to pay for it unless we go to Sky. That's just barmy.

If you are happy with this situation, fine, but many of us on this forum are fed up with it. I hope this appears in the manifesto of one of the political parties at the next election!
