    Have I missed the point of "NutsTV"?

    OK, it's only a month or two since I got a digital TV box, but have I missed something?
    I see about 40 TV channels, and after deleting the crap, I end up with about 10 worth keeping.
    Then I see discussions about allocating bandwidth, and I see something like "Nuts TV"
    This seems to have no TV content at all except "Highlights" after about 11pm. I'm not sure how you get highlights without any content to start with but....
    am I missing something?

    I've seen about 5 minutes of it and can't stand it. I'd rather watch Idealworld.

    Re: Have I missed the point of "NutsTV"?

    you know the anger-inducing thing? public consultation has shown that the unwashed masses want the analog spectrum to be used... for more low-quality SD channels like this. they don't want it to be used for HD

    The called it NutsTV because the regulator wouldn't let them be honest and call it BollxTV.

    And this is an actual channel, is it? I mean not a ****-take? There are people that actually WATCH this? Ye ****ing gods, 4+ billion years of evolutionary effort and the net result is the the sort of drooling, anencephalic, mouth-breathing waste of oxygen that would watch something like this...I feel ill...

    People like you and I should be installed into government. That way we can say "shut up, you're all wrong, the spectrum shall be used for HD muxes".

    I like the sound of that.

    Re: Have I missed the point of "NutsTV"?

    I have no idea who they actually speak to in these public consultations, in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't actually speak to anyone and just took who was prepared to pay the most for a slot..
