I have connected to Sky in NZ, all the channels for some extortionate rate.

Now I know Sky isn't the same as the UK, less satellites, smaller population etc. - and the standard channels/documentaries are reasonable in comparison. There's a lot less, but I guess in the UK there was a lot more rubbish.

But the Sports channels are a disgrace. To record Premiership games I have to have them, but the primetime sports are rubbish, and to make matters worse, Sky NZ don't even bother bidding for other worldwide sport, and simply replay everything. Tonight they could be showing SA v Aus cricket. I bet Sky UK are. Instead, 3 replays which have shown every night so far, and some US football magazine show. I'm not expecting miracles, but blinking heck....

The sooner someone else comes onto the market and challenges Sky, the better.....
