Bit of a silly question..... if there was unlimited space I'd like to see every english speaking channel in the world (and quite a few foreign ones too!)

If they added Sky One, made UK Gold 24 hours and add Paramount's 1 and 2, I would happily get rid of NTL and exhange it for a Freeview or Top Up TV service. Though I can't see this happening, though I think that Freeview has a good choice of channels, but Top Up needs sorting out, I don't think theres any need for UK Style and UK Food to be on it, as Freeview already has UK Bright Ideas.

Yes, but I couldn't resist reinforcing the view

Well it's pretty obvious that even if there was space for every channel on the globe, along with a +1 and +2, these channels wouldn't be able to afford to run for free. I know most of the Sky subscription fee goes to the Murdoch Shilling, but I'm sure a proportion goes to the respective pay channels. Otherwise they would be free-to-view on Satellite/cable already.

So in other words the question is "what channels would you like to view for bugger all per month?".

Freeview is a replacement for Analogue terrestrial not competition for SKY & Cable so to be honest I would be happy to just get BBC ONE, TWO, BBC THREE, FOUR, ITV 1, 2, Channel 4 and Five.

That is 5 more 'quality' channels than I get on analogue at the moment so already a value added service.
