[QUOTE="Mew, post: 264185, member: 29012"] gamejester The other channels are mostly on Astra 2D (although there are a few on 2A) and they were not encrypted before the Freesat launch. Only Channel 4 (and E4 and More 4) were encrypted and are now Free To Air. BBC channels have been Free To Air since 2003 and the ITV channels since 2005. I think that BBC and ITV may have moved to Astra 2D when they became Free To Air. I think the launch is very good news as it publicizes that there is free satellite television in the UK. I think that long term, due to the the limited bandwidth and coverage of Freeview, that Freesat is the way forward for digital TV in the UK. Mew [/QUOTE]
