Ok the barstewards have done it.

Digitalb said they were going to make their Premium channels available only via a separate subscription.

Cards bought originally for the film and sports channels will now only clear the film channels. To offset this Digitalb have said the cards will last for 14 months instead of 12

They are also saying cards for all channels will be over £300.

Bye bye Digitalb.

Well, I suppose we knew it was coming... >

The hackers now have an incentive, so I dont think Digitalb and Supersports know what is about to hit them.

Rupert to right of them,
Hackers to left of them,
Ridiculous price hike in front of them
Volley'd & thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the DigitALB executive.
