Yip I've been weighing up the options too.

I'd have to say that I enjoyed last years veiwing on MotoGP.com, but it chewed into my broadband cap pretty quickly.

I'm thinking SKY this year, you get SBK, MotoGP and abit of MotoX throwin for good measure.

No doubt Sky Digital.
I have a good enough aerial to pickup analogue for slightly cheaper. But guess if you are forking out for it (Sky) may as well be digital.....

**Matt Bleck** · 5th March 2007, 16:56

yeah mate it'll probably be digital, but I'll be spewing blood if I get rain fade during the final laps of a championship deciding race!

**sAsLEX** · 5th March 2007, 18:17

Hmm wonder if it will be on the plane as I am in the air during the first race

Isn't it bloody ridiculous that Sky pricing and package offerings are so crap that bugger all people can afford the basic product, let alone the digital service. In my case the "domestic-accountant" has stipulated that its either broadband OR sky ... not both.

I'm pretty tight fisted but have shelled out for sky, Motogp and Superbikes http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/im...ilies/punk.gif

If you have a landline through telescum you can get it slightly cheaper ($5.00)

I would not have bothered if Prime had kept up coverage, even delayed, for free it was great.

**Meekey_Mouse** · 5th March 2007, 18:34

Not confirmed yet but we MIGHT be having a viewing here... although it is a bit far away for you Htown peoples. Will keep you all up to date
