Dave Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Always known about this channel, but over the last few months i've started using it a lot more. Fucking pisses on the music video channels and digital radio stations; no adverts, decent choice of songs/genres (10 channels via red button), no breaks or trails whatsoever, pretty good sound quality (though i'm no audiophile) and all for free. There is an extra subscription channel on Sky 396 with more choices, but why bother? Just wish I could turn off the television and leave sound on, for some reason I end up watching it, even though there nothing to watch. Spot on.

Dokko Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Its good, love the dance channel, have Sky running through my amp and at parties turned off the TV and left this running. Had people asking what CD was on, and what track was that last night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 If you want a good laugh (and a mixed bag of music (both genre and quality)) have a watch of Fizz - or Channel Chav as it should be known. Some of the text comments are hilarious. And as for the pictures, the biggest collection of mosses (moosi??) asking boys to rate them. Brilliant fun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

indi Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Music choice used to be better. When we first got cable you could get it and it was a stand-alone thing with a separate box that plugged into your hi-fi, no picture, just tunes. About a 100-channels I think, done by genre and a remote that if you liked a particular tune you could press this button and it would show you the name of the tune, the artist, the album and the label it was released on. Then they just dumped it for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
