Channel 4 is being accused of misleading viewers for saying its new digital channel More 4 is completely free-to-view. On satellite you can only receive it if you have a Sky Digital subscription, meaning that those who access digital telly via Sky's free-to-air satellite system can not watch it.
The BBC has published complaints from loads of affected viewers desperate to watch More 4 (well, two I think). But Channel 4 say the problem lies with Sky, who have the right to decide which of their channels are free to air, and which come as part of their standard Sky Digital subscription. A spokesman told the Beeb: "More4 is positioned as a public service channel which we are providing for free and for which we are receiving no subscription income. We would obviously like it to be made available to the widest possible audience. However, contractually the decision to place More4 in a basic subscription package rather than on their Freesat service is one that lies in Sky's hands."
