“Foxtel” should be renamed “F**kall*.

F**kall TV, only ads!!

I won’t even go to the other “free to air” mind numbing ad after ad after ad torture stations.

Whose palm was greased to allow SBS to advertise - apparently to save money? Sure, I so believe we can’t afford it, when you compare the amount of income from ads, against the bucketloads of money the government pours down the drain.

Sure, the stations need to profit, but there is a difference between profiting and profiteering, and watchable TV and the mind numbing ad riddled TV that is currently on air.

AAARGH!!!!

buy a shinn kiteboard now

By a Tivo or another DVR. I never watch TV in "real time", just record, watch later and Fast Forward all the ad's.

I hate TV and didnt have one for many years.
Now i download the progs i like to watch, which are few.

Pay to watch TV? Absurd.

Japie, I agree the rugby commentating is shocking. Clarky, Kearnsey and the other guy whose name eludes me, are like three witches at a cauldron and woe betide anyone not an Aussie, whether it is be linesman, ref, player or manager, when the Wallabies are losing – it is open season to dis them, truth notwithstanding. You have more chance of getting pregnant than receiving an unbiased commentary from those three.

Thank God for the internet?! Have you noticed those full page ads that pop up on MSN? Give it a few years and some bright spark will have worked out how to get one of those to pop up every time you click on a link.

Thanks AquaPlow I’ll drop Conrad a line, but I don’t hold much hope. The media is where the pollies advertise, and it is the TV station’s discretion how much air time they give, and also how they interpret and report the spin, which is what wins or loses elections and is ultimately what determines whether they have a job or not. If I was a Polly, I would be stum with my opinions.

Good news though - 4 cracking days of wind in a row!!
