Default E4 / More 4 reported FTA!

The encryption is reported off on the Astra 2D versions of E4 & More 4.

I can also confirm E 4 and More 4 and the +1 are FTA on Sky box but Ch4 remains FTV

The fact that ITV HD will only be available on a Freesat box is not going to do it any favours at all.

Hi Madrat,
I can't see the reasoning for saying that ITV HD only being available on the freesat HD box will damage it, I should have thought that it would have been bad news for Sly, not freesat.

It was reported on the news that Sly has said that there is no need for another satellite service in the UK, but then what would you expect the robbing gits to say.

Very glad to hear that the 4s have gone free to air, more concern for the greed buggers at Sly.

Very best regards Wez

Whats more of a concern for FS at the moment is C4HD will not be joining FS for the time being - its on a different encryption contract to the other channels.

I cant see people with sky box's getting another box to watch ITV HD, more cables and another remote. I don't think so.
