Therefore we don't get alot of stations (like ESPN, Sky etc...) altho these regs may have changed. Cable TV: $60 * 12 months = $720 PPV's: $30 * 14 PPV's = $420 Total: + in addition, we only get: Raw and Smackdown (which we used to get raw 4 days late now only 1 day late), and smackdown, we get 2 days after its televised) We don't get: Sunday night heat (incl the heat match b4 a PPV), Velocity, WWE experience and any other shows. Therefore our total comes to: $1,140 in pounds: 447.45 in US$: 804.49

Ummmm, you got the sweetest deal, you pay the least and we get the same situation with the raw and smackdown tapings.

Plus you don't lose any sleep. I'd rather be in your posistion to be honest given the choice.

Plus you said in an early post that you only pay $50 for cable so knock $120 Ozzie dollars of that total

depends on how much you want to pay. $50 is minimum

and i wasnt stating who paid more, just what the prices were
