[mythtvnz] FTA digital next year

[Tim, Donna & Erin Gibson]

I think this is great news...

I was listening to the National Program on the way home tonight and a guy 
(sorry can't remember his name) from SkyTV was on for a while telling all and 
sundry that 40% of new zealand people already have digital in their home... 
not us could not justify the $50 a month...

Then interestingly he say's that Prime will become free over satellite, if I 
heard him right, but then it sounded like you may not get TVNZ or TV3 etc on 
your Sky box because with this new Freeview setup they will be in competition 
with SkyTV... I suppose that's why Sky don't let you watch NASA TV on their 
box cause they realy love their customers money not their customers...
