    No, you get the HD free. Unless you are mugging me off?
    *Except Michael, who died.

    Comment


      What hardware is needed to get BT and ditch Sky? I've got BT broadband - which annoyingly is not working properly today for the first time in months - and I can get the main sports channel I want on my lapdog so Sky seems unnecessary.

      But when they tried to flog me BT Vision three years ago I told them I hadn't got an aerial and that was that.

      Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

            When you say you can get the 'main sports channel', are you saying you're streaming games on your lapdog? Or are you saying that you've got BT broadband, therefore you've got BT Sport which you can also get on your lapdog?

              I am tempted, but I think ill reserve judgement until the last possible moment before Aug 1st.
              Indeed, it's £159 just to watch BT Sport through Sky for 12 months.

              I guess it depends on who provides your current phone and or broadband.

                Neil, why not just ring them and demand they sort it for you?

                  I subscribe to Eurosport Player. Cycling.

                  I didn't know that about BT Sport but of course it's obvious now you say it.

                  So, since I did nothing about the integrated media thingy Frenchie was persuading me to set up, I assume I could just use the laptop for watching tele and put it through my TV somehow and save myself £44 a month on Sky Sports and the whole Sky subscription on hardware and mainstream channels.

                  Yes?

                                Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
