Giving serious consideration to ditching my UBC subscription. Mostly on the basis that it's, well, utter crap basically.
Not that this is any sudden kind of revelation but it has become more pronounced recently as I'm lucky enough to have a M-Net (South African Sat-TV) subscription at home also and the two simply don't compare. Also didn't help when they uncermonioulsy dumped VH1 (ch.33) off of the service altogether without any notice which had been one of my favourites.
And the 'sports' channels? Great if you're a soccer fan (which I'm not) and enjoy seeing replays of the replay of last weeks replay shown just after the repeat of last years games. Otherwise forget it, utter bollocks.
So all that for around the same price I pay for my M-Net sub and what's more at least that (M-Net) doesn't suddenly drop its signal the moment a drop of rain falls from the sky - I've never worked that one out, why can a feed all the way from South Africa maintain its signal but one 'based' in Thailand not!? Even the TV schedule/menu is superior on M-Net. It never blanks out like UBC's seems so prone to and you can also see the schedule for an entire week in advance.
So yeah, I think it's a gone. Begs the question though regardless - just why is it so crap?? It's clearly not that hard to provide a better service for the same costs.
