Multiple channels .. No choice

February 20, 2005 by Michele Neylon Leave a Comment

I enjoy films, in fact I have been known to spend entire days in the cinema.
One of the reasons I got Cable tv from Chorus was to watch films, so I subscribed to the Sky Movies pack or whatever they call it.
To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Not only do they not show as many films as I would have thought, I am also missing a number of the “secondary” film channels that are available to digital subscribers.
Looking at the choices this evening for example:
Analyze that – 8pm Sky Movies 1. I saw it in the cinema and this is probably the 3rd or 4th time it’s been on Sky in the last few weeks
The Four Feathers – 8pm Sky Movies 2. I saw it on DVD last year, though this is the “premiere”
The only good thing is that there are no advert breaks, which I do really like. Watching films on RTE is so frustrating by comparison. Typical scenario:
Film starts. Intro. Ad break in middle of intro. Ad break continues. Film restarts – at this point you’ve probably lost track of where the plot was when the ad break started.
