but you have to get your foxtel box changed over to the new digital box. How long will it take for Foxtel to get around to every single house that has Foxtel to install the new box???
It reckon it will take ages before the change over happens

It would take a while except I think its a waste of money. Just a question, if youve got Foxtel and ur account runs out later this year does that mean that you'll get digital untill your account runs out? or do you need a special plan?

I dont plan on getting foxtel again - biggest waste of $$$

I suppose it depends on what you watch and where you are rfctigerarmy. Being a Port supporter living in Victoria if I don't get Foxtel hooked up at my new house (hopefully I can get rid of most of the new house bills by footy season :( ) then I miss a few games a year - not just a late replay, nada, zip. That and the fact commercial stations have bugger all sci-fi on and foxtel does and that being the about the only other thing I watch on tv I'll be getting it again.

If we had to rely only on FTA stations in Darwin and most of the NT we'd see less than 10 Port games a year (live or replay) and if the game was on a Saturday night the replay on Fox starts before our FTA coverage.

As for the digital extras........will be interesting to see what's there but the main thing is we get to see every game.
