View Full Version : Sky and Adverts
I have noticed this over the last few weeks as I am a bit of a channel hopper sometimes - give it a try. Flick through all the channels on Sky Digital and I bet you find that >50% of the channels do not have any programmes on, but adverts. There are times it appears to be 90% !! Maybe they should incorporate them into their EPG. As Bruce Springsteen once wrote: "57 Channels and nothing on".

Indeed, I think they cleverley time all the adverts to coincide so as to p*** off the channel hoppers such as ourselves!!

Not only that, they are becoming more and more frequent and lengthy.

It seems ridiculous that 27% of the broadcast time on SKY 1 consists of adverts. You pay a subscription to view the channel and over a quarter of air time is adverts

It's the same for us analouge users, ITV, CVH4&CH5 seem to have all their adverts on at the same time and they have increased from 3 to 4 an hour, and as I said in general chat... I HATE ADVERTS...same adverts time after time after time.
