Meh in Germany you have to pay like 15€ each month to get the Premiere Sports Channel, also you only get a 1 hour version of Raw. Atleast you get Bundesliga, Premier League and lots of other soccer with it.

I posted this a few days ago : officialfan.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=WWE&action=display&thread=1193139869If you subscribe to the full Sky package, you still get to keep Sky Sports 3. It's if you subscribe to the sports channels only that you have to pay more. As is my understanding. Anyway, the article mentions "letters have been sent", and I haven't recieved a letter, so I'm not worried.

I think I'll be alright by this. And even if I wasn't, I'm not too upset at losing Raw et al. I'll just watch TNA on Bravo2 instead!

My Sky Sports 3 stopped working about a month before they sent me the letter. I must have been the first guy this affected. Costs way too much for me to update.

Sky are forced by law to provide their sports and movies channels to Virgin, as they're subscription services. There's no such law on channels like Sky One or Sky News though, which is why Virgin don't get those channels.

Can I ask you why this is because I'm really not sure if it will affect me?

Yes this is lame they sent me the letter last week saying as of Nov 1st i won't get sky sport 3 for free with sky sports 1 anymore. At least they offered me the full sports package for free for 4 months. So I have to start paying more in Feb £34(for all sports channels) instead of £28(sky sports 1 and 3). I guess its Sky's way to try and take the bite out of this lame announcement. They just want more money I guess which sucks considering we have to pay for half the ppv's on box office as well now! But what choice do we have? I love wrestling and can't live with out it!

Personally, I think if sky are doing this and blatantly ripping people off, they can't be surprised when people find alternatives.
