I don't like News Corp and I don't like paying Bernie and Rupes more money, but neither do I like cutting off my nose to spite my face.
With this in mind, I now have Sky.
What can I say? I
Formula 1.
I couldn't even be bothered to rant about News Corp at the lackey on the phone, because they are trained never to respond, so I may as well tell the wall what I think.
But the thing is, I'm paying 50 quid a month for phone and internet (BT). With Sky, I'll pay 50 quid a month for phone, internet and Formula 1.
Principles are great, but boring, and Formula 1 is greater and more enjoyable.
Also, the RTL idea was great, but if that meant calling out someone just to point the satellite a certain direction, that would cost more than F1 for a month (£30 for the TV package).
