Sky for £6.50 eh? We would all be on it if it were that cheap! Last time I looked it was £19.50, probably soon due for the annual or bi-annual price rise from Sky. As for more channels.......'most' of them are tripe and shopping.

8Mb ADSL from UK Online........you need to be 2Km from the excahange, and subject to high line quality to get this. It will work best if the exchange is your next door neighbour. Speeds are up to 8Mbs, it will be interesting to see how it performs...........or doesnt when all the lunatics who insist on downloading 165Gb a day sign up to it.......the pipes will congest quickly to say the very least.

Also worth noting BT and Sky are far from the perfect companies some try and paint a picture of them. I would much rather have the services I have now that what I had before.
