The Ashes

[sasguru]

But as soon as you receive a live broadcast (or broadcast as live for those arguing about the satellite delay) you have to have a TV licence AIUI, no telly or not (no telly)

Looks like pub it is, or Radio 5

SkyGo is £10 a month, and it's for the laptop, and you get oodles of channels. Free if you have the full bundle. I use it on the Laptop or iPad when away. It's pretty good I must admit and I pipe it through the S4 on 3

If you have no Sky TV at home and want sports, then it's £35 a month.

Hmmm and I guess they'll want a 12 month contract.

Are you sure? I am convinced I only paid £5 a month when I had it - I'll check. It's free with my package, and I have everything, including 3D, HD etc, for £35 a month.

EDIT:
Bloody hell, it is as well!

They will want a 12 month contract on the basic channels, you should be able to get the sports for the 2 months.

I just got rid of most of sky but kept the sports with HD for another 2 months.

I'm actually quite livid that even if I had a telly, I would have to pay to watch the Ashes.
How are kids going to start taking it up if they don't have access to watching it? FFS.

I have been saying the exact same thing about cage fighting for years.

Just reviewing the Sky subscription after that latest price hike - did you go with any of the alternatives - Virgin etc?
