    With the euro rising all the time against sterling surely sky box office and pay per views etc should now be reviewed and reduced accordingly. Any thoughts or views out there.

    The only times I see Sky review prices, is when they want them to go UP! I've never seen prices drop.

    Good and true point but if I were to change euros for sterling it is worth a lot more now than a year ago. SKY have used the rate of exchange to suit them
    I believe they should review this. The euro has gone from a third less to a quarter less. I think we should get this reduction . Why not?

    Some are Cheaper, some are more expensive:

    One Value Pack: UK €20.91 ROI: €20
    Two Value Packs: UK €22.21 ROI: €22
    Three Value Packs: UK €23.51 ROI: €24
    Four Value Packs: UK €24.81 ROI: €26
    Five Value Packs: UK €26.12 ROI: €28
    Six Value Packs: UK €27.43 ROI: €30

    Movies or Sport: UK £23.51 ROI: €30

    So it seems that if you have a few value packs, ROI is cheaper, otherwise, ROI is more expensive.

    Of course, there isn't broadband there, is there?
