    And has been mentioned before, I and I'm sure many others would never have followed rugby without the Six Nations being free to watch and having it on freeview year after year

    @bethanjenkins Project Kangaroo became YouView. It wasn’t shut down because it was a ppv model - it was meant to be like an online Freeview. It was shut down because it was deemed unfair competition for private companies. Who are now all Americans.

    I only have Freeview, do movie channels get together and collude over what night they they are screening good films and what nights they show crap ones?

    @pearcy29_ If you have Freeview go to channel 601 and Radio 5 live is the commentary, no stupid Jenas to ruin the match.

    @Agrannywhosaid1 Fine by me. Currently the BBC's forced funding model relies on the false claim that "Freeview doesn't support encrypted subscription services".

    All channels on Freeview are unwatchable at the moment. Been like that for a few days, terrible service.
