 On/ITVdigital, new channel & PPV by Rupe
on 11/7/01 at 14:49
this is story 41 of 62 in this topic to date
Further to Simon's report on Sky's PPV pricing policy for next season, OnDigital have been sending their subscribers info on the new packages they can shell out for.

OnDigital is changing its name to ITV digital, with a new "ITV Sport" channel which includes the Champions League, Nationwide League, and Worthless Cup games. Typically, the letter tries to suck subscribers in with the "special introductory" price of £6.99/month which covers both ITV Sport and a PPV "season ticket". But this only lasts 3 months following which this price will cover only ITV Sport, with the PPV being an extra £3/month.

They're dropping the OnSport channels which means fewer sports channels overall. It remains to be seen if the Champs League coverage will suffer as a result....
...thanks to Mick Champness for clarifying this. He rang ThingDigital and was told they'll continue to screen 2 champs league games simultaneously when necessary, using "ITV Text +" for the second match. So that's some good news anyway.
