Er, I think I know what I am paying for, old chap, and as I have already pointed out, my recordings are proof of the pudding.

There are fewer and fewer recordings of Sky and other pay channels as time goes on as quality and choice go down the pan, most recordings now tend to be from the terrestrials and a huge chunk of my viewing comes from Netflix and Amazon. I have caught up with many of the shows I missed on Sky Atlantic through Now TV.

And to answer your question, if things get much worse, I will indeed pull the plug on these pay channels. I may go for a Freeview Recorder and get the rest of my viewing from streaming services for less than £35 per month.

Sky, demonstrably, is having increasing difficulty preventing their subscribers from leaving, which is why they are going to such lengths to retain them. The diminishing amount of decent choice and increasing prices is causing this.
