Could be so, many people use the terms for the two platforms interchangeably and often get them confused- even channel operators.

[QUOTE=johnathome;35796684I must admit i was surprised when someone said a couple of weeks ago that it was coming to Freeview, the startup costs for that are very high, i didn't think it would happen.[/QUOTE]

Well, I would imagine that both Freesat and Freeview would have cheaper carriage costs than VM.

Freeview is much cheaper for those going down the IPTV route with a Freeview EPG listing and the unused capacity on the HD mux must be going for a reasonable price.
