Thanks for posting this, it was an interesting read.

Some time ago someone on here asked why VM broadcast some channels unencrypted. I responded by saying that it was a condition of the franchises that channels 1-4 (1-5 in some areas) were broadcast in the clear. They then wanted to know why other channels on top of the aforementioned were unencrypted.

I asked my main contact and there were several reasons, including the reason given above, so I guess it seems that the 'new' CEO holds a similar view to his predecessor.
