Hugh - the PSB requirements are under review.

I doubt those views expressed in your post will hold up. Yes, I know it is a popular view on here that there will be a mix, but do you really believe that Skywill continue topay for expensive transponders when an alternative is available that will save them money?

Additionally, carrying on the live TV channels is an extra burden and an extra cost to broadcasters. I think the only thing that will save the conventional TV channels is the government itself.
