TVNZ 6 and 7

Broadcasting Minister Jonathan Coleman would like to see the Freeview channels TVNZ 6 and TVNZ 7 broadcast on Sky Television in the next couple of years.

Same. I am helping pay $78 million to TVNZ for those channels, and I ant to be able to watch them on my My Sky box. I do not want to have to buy a Freeview box also. It’s party a point of principle over the cost, but more a matter of convenience – I want one box which records the programmes I want. When looking at what is on in an evening, you don’t want to have to check two seperate sets of listings.
