[QUOTE="skyoutUK, post: 21660, member: 175732"] BBC's has only couple of viable options: Stay on 2D encrypted and on EPG (for reduced price from sky, face saving for Greg Dyke) this is most likely to happen. Broadcast skeleton service with all copyrighted material off "Press 1 on your TV to watch this programme" This is less likely but not impossible. Transponder strength on Astra 2D is controlled by SES and I very much doubt that anything will be done as it could affect UK itself. If BBC indeed start to broadcast full service FTA american rights holders will be all over them with legal cost quickly soaring way past what sky is asking for encryption. Return to 2A is out of the question (unlucky for us, but who cares in UK and BBC especially). [/QUOTE]
