We have just purchased Freeview after realising exactly how much we were spending a month on Sky Digital TV, whose prices seem to keep rising. We are very happy with it. You should be careful as a lot of the `free' channels are rubbish (shopping and auction channels mainly) but you do get `CBeebies' and `CBBC' which are a godsend if you have children, a couple of decent video music channels as well as `Sky Sports News', BBC3 and ITV2. You can pay extra to have channels such as UK Gold and E4 but the point of this is that it's free. If you are going to purchase a box ask your neighbours if they can receive a signal. We were told by Freeview that we couldn't and wouldn't be able to for quite a while but we get it as clear as crystal.
