    Default Sky packages

    How much does everyone who has Sky (and people who don't for that matter) pay, and what do you get for it?

    I've just been informed that my household pays £110 a month. This includes one Sky+ HD box, one Sky+ box, Sky broadband, Sky telephone and some sort of £10 a month warranty/cover. We also have the movie and sports channels which cost a little extra.

    I'm trying to get an idea if this is pricey (as it seems it to me) and how everyone else compares.

    Trouble with Freesat HD is there are only four or five HD channels, I bought one for £79 for my flat at the weekend thinking I would get ITV2, 3, 4HD etc but no, think ITV and Channel 4 need to get their act together if they want more freesat takeup.

    I don't watch that much TV (sit down @ 7:30), so corra's & eastenders + apprentice, dr who,x factor etc in HD does me + some HD movies on media player is more than enough.

    and theres now a 4hd
