    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @bigpapablu @itvfootball I don’t have a sky or freeview box! I stream everything and have very good internet so it’s never an issue haha

  • aquablu Nicola (@aquablu) reported from Whitley Bay, England

  • spazhammer ⓦⒶⓃⓨⓔ the cotton headed ninnymuggins (@spazhammer) reported

    ... plus I get to watch the home highlights/finest TV available (plus some garbage/filler I still enjoy!) Instead of watching what's available on virgin/sky/Freeview, I get to choose whatever when I want. I don't get why others haven't. Other than technical skills/knowledge

  • GFan1969 Jim (@GFan1969) reported

    @larmstrong98 @Kevin_Maguire I do NOT believe you do not have cable, SKY or Freeview, so you have plenty of channels to choose from. Have some damn respect!

  • Emwold1 Maz (@Emwold1) reported

    @peter4buckley I hardly ever watch TV, just Gogglebox or the odd rare temptation, so never bothered with more than Freeview. I prefer reading, with the radio on. But not today...

  • FactsStomp Phil's Retro Life #retro (@FactsStomp) reported

    @trianabutler @cleanfeed_ttvr @ITV The SD Freeview service is low bitrate MPEG2 with far too many channels crammed on to each mux. But I believe ITV+1 is also 544x540 3/4 resolution! (though most channels use this)

  • ScotRamsay Scot Ramsay (@ScotRamsay) reported

    @lennylaw When you have 6 live TV channels available to all on Freeview, and you show the same thing on 5 channels, and close down the sixth, that's just bollocks.

  • BrianBengal BengalBrian #FBSI🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@BrianBengal) reported

    @daviebroon51 I have and am watching the court case on Freeview channel 89, so am for the most not subjected to the MSM crap. 👍

  • vinceunlimited Vince (@vinceunlimited) reported

    @jimwaterson At least iPlayer is broadcast via an App on my smart TV therefore gets broadcast as HD. Freeview cannot managed HD on any more than 5 channels and BBC4 ain't one of them. SD is visually poor in big flatscreens

  • watford1881 Stuart Cashmore (@watford1881) reported

    Why is Hive Live Match Live Tab not working @WatfordFC Only Freeview tab is available I've secured my seat so I can watch @davem2612

  • gildy61 Random Jottings of Gildersleeve (@gildy61) reported

    @CardozoAth @SteelDalek1 But they have a 24 hour dedicated news channel broadcasting on Freeview. Freesat. Sky's platform and the internet so people could watch that. But to be sure you can't escape they close down their other TV networks or relay the same output across them all.
