Sun Media

i guess we need more govt regulation.

jensend,
Say the government passes legislation saying only Ford and Chev can act as selling agents for cars throughout Canada
You want a Toyota.
Braveheart wants a Jaquar.

You've paid a fee to deal with Ford.
But they hang up on you when you tell them you want to buy a Toyota.

Understand legislated monopolies have responsibilities? Don't be petty partisan on this It's an impt issue.

I haven't made the call yet. But it wouldn't be tough for me to switch to shaw. I'm do for a hardware upgraded anyways.

[jensend]

you have a choice to buy sun or toyota. it's available. should all farmers be legislated to grow corn? i thought this was a marketing forum - let the market decide. if shaw gets all four thousand viewers of sun i guess bell loses out? charles adler and ezra levant draw small audiences because they lack credibility (and intellect). maybe there is no market for this pos that peladeau is trying to foist on canada.

I have a shaw dish and you can get all the UFC events plus !! they have the fight network and spike T.V. and catch some old school MMA.

If I recall, one of the conditions of SunMedia's start-
up was that none of the carriers would begin
charging during the first 6 months of broadcast.
Then it would be based on viewer demand. My size
up is that Bell took a look at what is being offered
and decided to bail off of the Titanic before the
icebergs came into sight. If the best Sun has to
offer is Ezra, then I would suggest it will be an
extremely small audience. And as another post
suggested, you can only tolerate so much of hosts
talking to themselves. And while I can't stomach
Craig Oliver myself, I agree with his question of 'if
you're no different from anyone else - who needs
you'? Sun was supposed to be invigorating and
original - all I see is lame stream bling. And beware,
as a shaw customer, they have a way of nickelling
and dimeing you to death.
