Anyone invested in one of the worldwide TV programmes?
There is a lot of hype and a charge for around £19.95 and all the TV you want from Sky and other stations around the world. Sports, movies and all! Too good to be true or what?

Be VERY careful with the small ads at the bottom, which advertise free movies etc. They MAY be free, but, firstly, you pay £30-50, and then, most likely, all you get is a host of tiny parochial stations, the vast majority being US and religious, OR
you'll get access to a BitTorrent programme, which you could have downloaded for free.
Do NOT submit your proper email address to them- get yourself a Yahoo address with any old name to use if you're experimenting on the web. That way, if the recipient is a spam harvester, or a vendor of email addresses, your usual email address won't be on their lists. (See the current threads-
