    Default Formula 1/2

    Just read this on BBC Website:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/moto...ne/9550930.stm

    Looks like those who do not have Sky Sports will only be able to watch 1/2 of next seasons races on BBC!

    BBC and Sky are saying its the way forward. Wonder how much Sky are going to charge to watch the races on a Pay per View basis?

    trouble is most fans will pay to view it, but i wont. i did the same when sky took over the boxing, now i love boxing but ive not watched it since sky took it over. sky dosnt seem to understand that more people will watch something if its free, adverts pay for these events but no!! sky want you to pay for there services in the 1st place as well as being paid to have adverts in the programmming so no wonder, does it also mean there will be ads in the show again like what ITV did??
    i gotta stop now before i bust something lol

    Seems that all of the tv channels bow dow to sky.

    I was similarly annoyed when ITV4 stated the BTCC would be broadcast in hd this year. Problem is ITV4 is only available on.....you guessed it Sky. This meant if you want to watch the btcc in hd you had to pay for sky hd.

    Won't be long before sky owns everything.....which is exactly what that Mr phone hacker wants. Problem is that he's a crook, in much the same way Bernie is

    They will probably forward it to BSkyB as they seem to pulling all the strings and the BBC are just puppets... or should than be muppets?
