Or what about the channels themselves who were left off-air when TARBS folded - maybe they approached WMI/PAS direct?<br /><br />At the end of the day isn't it better to move on, forget the past and the rumours,, and recognise that more operators = more choice = better value for consumer.<br /><br />And if the operators in the new regime have all been around a lot longer than some others, then surely they are the better business operators, and therefore maybe the ones to pick as providers..<br /><br />Just a thought
