But does it need to or is it just due to the way they've currently
implemented it? I mean I can't see anything in the Sky EPG that isn't
available in the EIT data (though I haven't looked closely), so presumably
they could implement their EPG using just the EIT data and if they did that
they could use TVNZ's transmission as the source for TVNZ6 and 7.

Cheers,
Steve
