[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 19977, member: 174998"] Rob Following BBC's announcement that they would go FTA, there were some hints that others (ITV etc.) may follow suit. To my recollection, none of that has been decided though. As things stand at the moment, it is still expected that you'll need a digibox for Ch4 & 5 (since they encrypt in Videoguard and no other receiver or CAM can handle the UK variant of Videoguard). In fact, I am now hearing noises that BBC may reverse its decision since it has been independently advised that their EPG deal with Sky (whereby they occupy the 101 & 102 slots) is good value. And there were always those who insisted that BBC's noises about going FTA were nothing more than a negotiating ploy. 2old [/QUOTE]
