i dont & didnt pay Sky a penny so you dont have to pay Sky to use their equipment. the other point is that when/if the channel line up is the same (as it should be IMO) buying second hand Sky receivers (which dont require a subscription) is still cheaper then buying freesat equipment atm, however this may change in time when the price of freesat (or any FTA) receivers goes down. one thing i have been wondering tho the interactive services that Sky uses for BBC, ITV, Channel 4, S4C, Sky News etc will ppl also get these on freesat or ?
