I don't think people are necessarily mugs for paying for Sky coverage, that's their choice. I personally wouldn't pay for Sky as I object to Murdoch and all that he stands for. The alternative is the BBC, which although isn't a perfect institution, at least isn't owned by a hyper wealthy man or woman or group of faceless investors.
