Another question mainly for UK viewers but if you’re overseas still feel free to join in.
It’s quite simple:
Is Sky – aka BSkyB – evil? Does the fact its marketing budget exceeds ITV’s programming budget make you hate it? Do you hate having to have a satellite dish to watch it? Do you hate their buggy set top boxes and the fact you can’t export stuff from it onto your iPod to watch elsewhere? Do you hate that they’re a DVB broadcaster that doesn’t stick to standards so you can’t record it on your PC, even with a decoder box and card? Do you wish they’d actually make programmes occasionally, other than just Terry Pratchett adaptations and three-part specials designed to get more HD subscribers? Do you hate that they’ve bought HBO’s entire future and back catalogue so you’ll have to watch Sky to see the best US shows? Do you hate that they won’t put anything of their on iTunes or that their Sky Player only has about five programmes on it and won’t work on an iPhone anyway? Do you hate that essentially everything is on their terms, everything costs too much and essentially you feel like they’re abusing their dominant market status to give you an inferior service in exchange for being colossally ripped off?
Or is it just me?
