I find it always very interesting how much the average person here in Israel is willing to spend for TV, Internet and Mobilephones.

I know some families who pay unbelievable prices for having more then one receiver at home.
No one even thinks about getting another receiver then the ones from YES or HOT. For most it is just the way the cookie crumbles.

I guess as long people are happy the Knesset guys will talk about other stuff.

Thanks for the list of the channels.
