on the original pack its £21.50 per month and if you have a good discount available you might be able to get it near £10 and still get more channels.

"Sky own freesat"!. No they don't. If you stop paying Sky your box becomes a Free-to-Air satellite receiver, as satellite is an open platform, & Sky just rent transponders from the satellite operator like everyone else. The only thing Sky has control of is the EPG, & the software that allows you to record, which you have to pay to use. So the best option is to look at the channels available on Sky's FTA EPG list, & Freesat's EPG list, as the two do differ, & see what suits you best. Also if you buy a Freesat PVR you can record without paying a subscription.
