Sky Germany

[dasteelman]

about 35 minutes until the launch of the rebranded Sky De from Premiere.

The ID channel names are changing as we speak...

[bite]

Here's the video of Sky Sport launch in Germany...

Enjoy!

[nanochickin]

Heres a screenshot of the new Sky Select Pay Per View channels. Replaces Premiere Direkt.

Pretty much the same sort of thing as Sky Box office

[wannabee]

Thanks guys..

I had forgot about this happening.. lol.. I was wondering where my Premieres went.. lol.. even went a done a full scan of 19.2E.. lol

Wally.. yes.. i know.. lol

[nanochickin]

Oh well, I shall miss Premiere

Another company to lose its identity to the News Corporation that owns most of Sky.

Uncle Rupe is definately going for World Domination

I wonder who will be next. I'm betting on Digital+ myself

It is time they had their wings clipped, you cannot have one family/company running all the satellite TV in Europe, which is what the Murdock empire are after.

The fact that I hate Sly and all they represent will come as no shock to some guys, but they are getting out of control and we will be the ones who will suffer. If anyone hacks their system then are treated worse than a murder and the governments are the ones who back the Murdocks to the hilt. Never mind the MPs expenses they are getting plenty from Sly to not need to claim any.

Death to the murdoch!

they've shut down HIT24 channel!

[bite]

Yeah, that's very sad...
Hit24 was very good channel...

[dasteelman]

long live murdoch.....i must be the only one that thinks they are fab

[BombedOne]

I hope at least Canalsat France will withstand and won't shut down TELE MELODY...

[bite]

Mmm, haven't heard of that channel... Will check it out tonight... Thanks!

[zoro25]

I want choice and not Sky, that why I purchased a hobby box (dream) and also why I went the motorised dish route.

In the end we will have no choice except to buy a Sky sub.
no matter which provider you get they will be owned by the murdoch's / Sky
Boo-Hiss :-(

[BombedOne]

Yep, TELE MELODY is the last channel, which has own video library, much much different from ones that we get from Viacom (MTV, VH1, VIVA) channels.

[bite]

Well, I think, that Vh1 Classic isn't bad either...

[BombedOne]

Have you ever seen some EUROPEAN stars on VH1 Classic, like Albano Carissi or Toto Cutunio?

[bite]

Yes, I have...
Toto Cutugno I have heard, about Albano - no clue...

[HB13DISH]

Have you ever seen some EUROPEAN stars on VH1 Classic, like Albano Carissi or Toto Cutunio?

You don't need VH1 to watch Italian singers. Several Italian FTA channels show regular clips, for example RTL 102.5 and RAI1 on occasion.
When in Rome ........
Albano is a regular contestant at the yearly San Remo Song Festival.

[BombedOne]

Unfortunately - no.

The most interesting videos were on:

ONYX.TV - shut down.
Carpe Diem - Shut down.
Magic TV - still online but in 352x288 res.
RTL 102.5 - Changed it's format since it was HC (Hits Channel), now they more talk, than show OLD BUT GOLD hits.
HIT24 - Also shut down now.
Video Bergamo - not a bad choice, but terrible quality.
MTV Gold - some bits worth, but again, viacom influenced repertoire.
MMTV (16E) - quite bad quality, but better than Video Bergamo
ALL MUSIC, Radio Italia TV - no historical italian hits observed.

Anyone can suggest me a channel (except TELE MELODY) on which I can see:

Baltimora - Tarsan boy
Sabrina - Boys (non-censored, non viacom aprooved version)
Aneka - Japanese boy
Wings - with a little luck
Moris Albert - Feelings
RAF - Self Control
Ivan - Photonovella

much more advertising is coming..
the bundesliga rights,are to expensice,murdock,is out of money now

and no one told us,how much he,realy paid for premiere,thats a little secret,and we never get the answer

[redondo]

Do You know which packages includes in pre-paid card for Sky Germany? I know that some shops had pre-paid card for Premiere and they gave movies+fusball+sport+basic channels and also 1 hd channel.

[Analoguesat]

I doubt they are doing pre pays. Sky's business model depends on getting access to peoples bank accounts on a monthly basis!

[redondo]

Yes, maybe they do that with bank accounts and monthly payment. I asked before one web shop which had premiere pre-paid card nad they told me now for Sky Germany havent any pre-paid card yet.

[Turok]

yes thats true!
Murdock,dont like,this old prepaid system that premiere used before,now its gone !

[Telia]

long live murdoch.....i must be the only one that thinks they are fab

I like Sky, the best thing out there.
