Why can't Sky go back to the Astra 1a system and allow users to customise

I guess it all boils down to they really couldn't give a stuff about
their customers.

Takes me bloody ages to get used to new channel numbers. :(

I hate change when I have taken so long getting used to something in
the first place. It was a pain when they moved the mtv channels round
recently too.


For some reason I always get a little bit of pleasure from seeing
channels I like rise up the list in a quasi-survival-of-the-fittest
kind of way :-)

From memory, E4 will have gone from 205 to 163 to 140, with FX moving
from 287 to 270 to 179...

I'm a bit confused about what's happened to the Paramount channels and
Sci-Fi though...?

My biggest worry is those gambling, shopping and semi religious
channels seeping into the mainstream.

I think the reshuffle will groups them together so they're easier to
avoid. It would be nice if you could hide categories you're not
interested in. :)

It would be even better to allow viewers to remove whole channels from
their EPG. :)

YES! oh please please kind sky people...and while you're at it give us
the option to shut the annoying gits up at the end of programs. Last
night a woman person talked right over the final gag on a simpsons
episode! Jees, it's bad enough them swooshing reams of info over our
screen during shows without them yacking over them too!

Thanks, I should have looked more carefully at the time planned for the
update. I thought it was happening tonight not last night! I haven't
switched Sky on so far today otherwise I would have realised my mistake.
