Can anyone confirm this?

in most of european countries there is cable tv (pay tv) AND free tv...
are you a little exagerate??the hell is like??
let's start a topic about the freedom of the press
It's not too bad in the UK, if you know the right people they will give you software so you just have to connect your TV, PC and aerial and you can watch channels that charge you for completely free.

But that guy I knew got caught before I could get some of that software.

Default Of TV & Taxes

The European union is a socialist monster. I have no doubt the Eurocrats will soon introduce a flat tax on the air we breathe based on estimated, individual consumption. You'll breathe into a device and they will use the resultant data coupled with body mass index to determine your tax rate. Ah, Mr. Conservopath. You consume on average 50 cubic cm of oxygen per 24 hour cycle. That will be 200 Euro per month.

As for television? Over fifty percent of the programming on cable television consists of adverts. There are actually 30 minute and even one hour blocks of advertisements tactfully referred to as: info-mercials. Personally I think cable should be free. Why are we paying for the privilege of watching a barrage of commercials where actual content has become secondary.

I think stealing cable service may be illegal, but it isn't unethical. Cable should be as free as broadcast radio. It sure has as much commercial content.

Conservopath. Another battered and embittered consumer...lol
