Later this year, we can expect to see FreeSat launch in the UK. This is a joint free-to-view satellite TV service that’s due to offer 80 free TV channels, plus some high-definition content. It’s due in “Spring 2008″. What we know so far can be found on our FreeSat UK page.

Want 200 TV channels without a subscription? Sky has launched Sky Pay Once. Available exclusively from Dixons online, this costs £75 and includes the box and installation.
