Watch more of the same thing

The Freeview parody ad "Watch more of the same thing" is causing a bit of strife for its creators. It has been removed from youtube for "terms of use violation".


From what I can tell, especially for us lucky people in the sticks, freeview will be exactly what the ad says, the same thing on 3 different channels. As well as a program guide telling us what show Channel Nine will be delaying by 20 minutes tonight.



The movie embedded above probably won't last long on youtube. There is a 50mb Hi-Def quicktime version, it can be downloaded here.

Haw! We have Freeview here. You have to pay for it. Gotta love the English. There are 5 terrestrial channels like in Aust, then there's freeview, then there's paying extra for cable like Sky.

However, if you don't have a tv, but do own a computer or mobile phone, you still have to pay a tv licence, which goes towards funding a tv channel you'll never watch because as previously stated, you don't own a tv. Rock on!
