Comment
Possibly because we all pay for a one-off TV Licence in the UK and then get to watch some good-quality TV for free. Lots of households then object to paying again for much of the drivel served up on subscription services. I admit there are some quality exceptions to that rule, but if I could just pay a one-off fee each time to watch those programmes (a la iTV/iTunes project) then I would willingly start to use my 8Mb broadband for those.
