[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 10410, member: 174998"] perhaps someone could try to place an advert, and when (presumably) refused, request to know the reason. That info could then be passed to one or other of the UK consumer groups. If Sky's reasoning is that the Sky contract binds the owner not to sell it on, then bear in mind that it is perfectly legal to obtain a Sky box without any Sky subscription and therefore without any such contractual obligation. Banning advertising is therefore a simple violation of free-trade laws. It's about time someone stamped on this little Murdoch weazel. I was hoping he'd get his come-uppance when Canal+ announced plans to sue his sleazy little empire for orchestrating the hacking of the Mediaguard encryption system... but he managed to wriggle out of that too. 2old [/QUOTE]
