Advantages: good channels
Disadvantages: not on Sky Digital
I wish ITV would stop being so stupid and put itself and ITV2 on Sky Digital. Both channels are non-subscription but they seem insistent on keeping them from Sky Digital customers. They think that by keeping them from Sky and restrict them to its own, On Digital service, they will attract more customers!! The facts are simple, you would have to be crazy to subscribe to On Digital because if you subcribed to all the channels you get for the top rate package on Sky Digital, the price would be extortionate! Restricting ITV and ITV 2 is just annoying for the British public. Don't they realise that without all the channels Sky provides On Dgital they would not have a service to run! Belt up bosses at ITV - this situation has gone on for far too long now!

- 03/09/00 What irritates me is that they even refuse to put their programme schedules on the Sky channel guide.As finding out what's on ITV involves scrabbling down the back of the sofa for the local paper or checking the teletext I just don't bother watching anymore.If they did show their schedules, I might find something to tempt me into changing channels. |

- 18/08/00 As a Sky Digital subscriber myself I now have to watch ITV via a dodgy aeriel, with a subsequent dodgy picture.
ITV have therefore shot themselves in the foot, as I only ever rarely tune in now, mainly for the Grand Prix, CD:UK, and the odd football match.
Maybe the decline in viewers for the late news slot is more as a result of this ludicrous situation, rather than the time it has been switched to. |
