not really, you aren't making any sense and I can't decided whether it is because you have misunderstood my posts or whether you are just the biggest hypocrite ever and like to contradict yourself. The general tone of your posts suggests that you disagree me yet your individual arguments and statements regarding having to pay for channels that you don't watch support my position. Just to be clear, you are complaining about "choosing" to pay for a service which has so many channels and so much variety that you cannot watch all of them. I am complaining about "having" to pay for a service that I don't watch and don't want to have. I do not have an option not to pay or to unsubscribe.

Me and all the other people who "choose" to pay for a quality tv service with hundreds of channels containing series I actually want to watch. There are many many channels that have content I am not interested in (e.g. Sky Living, UK Gold etc) but there are a handful of channels such as Syfy, Sky One, Sky Atlantic, CBS Reality, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, Sky News, Eden etc etc which have more quality and enjoyable content on than I physically have time to watch. I don't actually watch any terrestrial tv at all. I am happy to let everyone do their own thing and watch Coronation Street because it does not affect me at all. ITV and Channel 4 can broadcast whatever they want and people can watch it if they want to or not watch it, it doesn't bother me because I don't watch them and I don't have to pay for it. What does bother me is having to pay for 2 channels that I don't watch which costs nearly as much as the 200+ channels that I do choose to pay for.
