I came home from work today and there was a leaflet in a nice clear plastic bag from sky, labelled sky bundles, so for a laugh I read it and the top bundle which they called the complete bundle is £67 a month. who in there right mind pay that amount for Tv, certainly when a lot of it on sky is repeats and garbage.
Edit: the reason those broadband figures don't add up is that Sky's figure includes the Republic of Ireland, which probably accounted for around 10k. Obviously makes Sky's UK figure a little bit less impressive. BT say they had 60% of the net adds in the broadband market - battle between Sky and BT certainly seems to be squeezing other providers in terms of winning new broadband customers.
