Link digital channels to licence
Article Abstract:
BSkyB has almost completely converted its customers and service to digital television, even though some outside of the television industry are critical. The Consumer's Association has questioned the need to pay more for extra television services when consumers pay an annual license fee, and the BBC has already begun work on a strategy to promote free-to-air digital.

The premiership time bomb
Article Abstract:
Satellite, cable and pay-TV sports broadcasters require viewers to purchase packages to receive the events desired. BSkyB, whose premiership package contains highly restricted programming, and Manchester United both are against unbundling packages, citing the fact that smaller clubs would lose their share of screening rights money. Greg Dyke believes unbundling can be successfully challenged by a big organization.
