There is a lot of comment on what's on Fox v C7, on all media platforms.

A lot of support for/Kayo v C7 , aka Free To Air.(FTA)
Arguments about Pay V FTA
Interestingly , many years ago, a work colleague said, I will never pay for TV.
At another workplace, a fellow work colleague , said you are actually paying for TV , but don't realize it.
WTF
So he explained it. It is very simple.

we will use Graig Lowndes , Tyrepower Adds as guide.

Tyrepower wants to promote it's outlets. Hires Graig to do the adds $XXXX.
They hire a add Agency to make the Add. $XXXXX
They then by air time on the Commercial networks, C7, C9, C10 etc $XXXX

I was at a course as part of my employment, the presenter, previously worked in Add Agency / TV , air time for Adds is costly $XXXX

so to cover the cost outlayed by Tyrepower, every tyre they sell , has a cost added to it to pay for Craig to do adds and the cost of air time on TV.

So in reality, there is really no such thing as Free To Air, as the consumer at some stage actually pays a percentage of the price of goods, to cover the making off the adds to sell said goods.

So if you think about it, take any product , add 0.01% to the price , round up or round down, the consumer is still paying for it.

So if you present this to ppl who swear by Fox, I wonder what there reply would be, Paying twice to watch their favourite sports.

Me, I subscribe to Kayo, and enjoy it .
