Foxtel is a joke these days. The whole idea of pay tv is that there's no need for ads as you're paying for them

to run it... When we first got it back in the day ads were about 10 seconds long and only advertised the next show, but these days they're advertising products and run as long as, if not longer than free to air ads.

Yeah back in the day of the square black remote with rectangular buttons (anyone remember the "flip" button instead of "back"?), the only ads you got were for the show coming up next or on the same channel. Then it progressed to advertising inter-channel, but no commercial advertisements, but now we have free to air style shit...fucking brand power and all that jazz. It's garbage. I manage though...don't watch much TV, but when I do the ad breaks are to make food/drink and dispose of it :D

And yes Hamish you pay for more channels but one of Foxtel's slogans used to brag about no ads, and it was definitely a core selling point for their product. It's just that Foxtel having a monopoly on the pay TV these days, is a case of...we can do what we like...suck it up princess...they know you have no choice unless you wanna shoot yourself in the foot and cancel your subscription - then you're stuck with the same bullshit on free to air and alot less channels.

Mohsen, what have you done to get a thread against you?

So my fuel tank is full of all sorts of shit according to mechanic. Bad batch of fuel has killed the near new walbro fuel pump so now the whole tank has to come out and be sent off for cleaning, and a new pump. Epic FML.
