When will these companies learn; make content available through several outlets and most people will gladly pay.

PPV just isn't economically practical for TV shows with many seasons and episodes.

I stand to be corrected, but as I understand it, HBO content is available as a premium subscription on most cable and satellite services in the US. Why haven't HBO adopted the same delivery method in the UK? Probably greed.
