BBC has settled its long-running row with Sky

"According to the Financial Times, BBC has settled its long-running row with British Sky Broadcasting over the satellite transmission of its channels. The two broadcasters have been at loggerheads since the BBC decided to discontinue using BSkyB's channel encryption and regionalisation systems in order to broadcast from a different satellite. BSkyB had said that would mean BBC1 and BBC2 would have to move off the top two slots of the satellite service's on-screen channel menu. The two companies have now worked out an agreement that will see BBC1 and BBC2 retain the top two slots on the menu."

I wonder if this means that they are still going FTA or staying encrypted?

Was it necessary to start another thread? Surely you saw the existing one.
