Well I wouldn't belittle it too much, whilst these additions are nothing special, there will be some watchable channels added in the forthcoming months and in the present credit squeeze, it may be that they (Sky) will lose a lot of existing customers and potential customers to a totally free service.

So true. Cancelled Sky the other day to save a few coins a month and the lady on the phone was saying that there is a lot of people doing the same, mainly because of the credit crunch she said.

Saying that though, there seems to be only a small amount of people taking up the freesat option, even some boxes are falling in price.
