I thought most ppl owned freeview by now :)
Seriously, from the Wiki on freeview:
"The founding members of DTV Services Ltd. were the BBC, National Grid Wireless and British Sky Broadcasting. On 11 October 2005, they were joined by ITV plc and Channel 4"
so it seems everyone has a share in dtv/freefriew now
"It was announced on 8 February 2007 that Sky intend to withdraw Sky Three, Sky News and Sky Sports News from the platform in the summer of 2007. If approved by Ofcom, these services will be replaced by four new subscription channels"
- which means £££ for sky :( that is if freeviewers want to update their freeview box (channels will use different hardware to b able to watch). pretty disappointing, but then id rather have NO channels than more shopping or (worst of all) more comedy competition phone-in channels, lol
