Sky 2D dirty tricks ?

Ulsterman 1690 · 2005-07-30 11:07:18

I see Sky are moving more of their (already encrypted) channels onto Astra 2D This wouldnt be with a view to filling up 2D by any chance so that If Channels 4 and 5 ever wanted to switch from FTV to FTA they wouldnt be able to use the narrow 2D beam ?
