You are a case, Vince!
I used to enjoy new channels starting - I still remember Disney launching - it was pretty well a family event!
However, there are so many channels on now that unless it is a really big thing (like Sky Atlantic would be!) I scarcely notice them starting up any more.
It's all about content for me. Don't care about all the reality stuff, there's enough of that to keep my wife content for years. But I really do want a full choice of the good quality dramas and films and I don't like finding out I can't get them on Virgin Media!
I've given up waiting for Sky Atlantic now, I've bought the Game of Thrones box sets and I'm getting Boardwalk Empire next (Christmas/birthday pressies!).
A more expensive way of viewing them, but frankly it's better than being asked what you want for a present and coming up with something you don't really want because you can't think of anything at the time. I'm going to be more organised in future!
Hopefully, we will be getting Amazon Prime and other video streaming choices on TIVO before much longer - all the time wearing away at the content we cannot yet receive over the TIVO.
Sky will have to come around in favour of customers sooner or later, but it is taking faaaaaaar too long and I don't want to die first!
