a bit of TV information for you
Firstly Foxtel.
I have Foxtel for the backpackers and decided to get another box for our lounge, we called to get the price and it is $100 instal, the box is free and it costs $20 per month so we asked about Foxtel IQ (the same as sky+) the instal is staill $100 and the box costs $359 but and the big but is it only costs $5 per month, so in total over the 2 year contract so in total it works out cheaper to get the foxtel IQ by $6 over the 2 years.
Another thig I have just discovered is, my dad back in the Uk has a TV card in his computer and can watch his SKy on the computer, he is currently broadcasting it to me here in Australia via MSN mesenger, so if you know anyone in the Uk with a TV card in the computer they should be able to do the same for you. Could be very handy for certain sporting events and Cutting It of course
