when you buy windows XP you are charged more if you are going to use that Disc to install on 100 PCs.. ok thats fair... still works out cheaper than buying 100 copies of XP

But if you subscribe to SKY at the pub price, you dont get to view at more than 1 pub, so that analogy is flawed also.

ive yet to meet 1 person that thinks SKYs prices are good value and fair...

at this moment as i type this i am watching Man United on TPS, if a wanted to watch it on sky it would cost £7?? stuff that, i already pay £46 a month for sky...and that includes SKY Sports!!!

the way i look at it... if sky did 1 package.. everything for £20, everyone would be happy, and sky would have more than 8m viewers... in the long run they would make alot more money!!

8m viewers @ £30 pm average = £240m
30m viewers @£20 pm fixed rate = £600m

and i would be confident that 30m is a real possibility at that price, maybe more!!!
