Free Korps Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 upgraded for the time being to take advantage of extra viewing time while i recover from hangovers... recorded Pineapple Express & Tropic Thunder so far... any movies i should be looking out for & putting on the Sky+?The Sky Mag is a shite resource, no help at all with movies, recommends 1 crap movie per day or something like that. I totally grudge being charged 2.20 for it, I asked them not to send it to me so that i could save the charge, they said it couldn't be done, awesome. Apparently you can cancel receiving the mag... but without saving the charge, some kind of VAT saving loophole, plus they get to send a mag packed with advertisements to all their customers, a big audience (in theory - if anyone reads it!), so lucrative for advertisers & another excuse to plug all their services, box office, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Easy Wishes Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 I get charged for that piece of shit magazine that without fail goes straight in the bin every month?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Korps Posted December 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 yeah that waste of trees is paid for by your subscription, quite a few threads online elsewhere about it due to the recent increase in charge, most folk don't read the small print but it's been going on for a while, I of course grudged it before, was during the time when I tried to cancel my Sky+ due to moving as I didn't want to pay again for getting it installed (at an address with a sky dish already installed but not the extra + cable) but found out you have to have sky+ for 12 month period, so in order to make use of what I'd have to pay for...

Set out in a big grid, with the times along the top, and the channels down the side. Pretty much like your Sky Digital TV guide, but colour coded for classification, and everything. Now it's just "This is on at some point, and so is this. Watch it. We get paid alot to show it, and it's dead good, honest". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
