LOL, I like the analogy. Hate is far too strong a word for me to use though, I guess I was simply underwhelmed over the 10 years or so I used Sky. For much of that time in my life T.V. was important to me and VM's offering was so much poorer at the time. I did go through a stage of not wanting to pay the Murdouchs, but realized I would have to stop buying many, many films I liked. That said, I thought Sky+ was the best thing since sliced bread when it first came out:-)
In terms of VM, love is also too strong. I like the fact VM won't seemingly pay OTT for SA and want a good deal for BT Sports. Their customer service and engineers have been top notch whenever I have had a problem. However their communication (for new channels in particular) and channel acquisition is shockingly bad and could be improved very quickly in my eyes.
Even if I was allowed a dish on my flat, I would choose to stay with VM because it suits my needs at this current time. If there comes a time when I need to join Sky again, then I will, but I can't imagine I will be very impressed with their overall service.
