Foxtel have been doing this for years now so i dot expect them to change. It is just one of the reasons they are losing subscribers so may be someone will be listening now!
The broadcast picture is too wide for my screen and I cannot re format the monitor.
I am watching the Masters Golf and i frequently cannot see the players or the ball when they are on the green. I am also watching the Chinese Formula One GP ( which is far superior to the free to air offerings) but the drivers times on the left of the screen are partially invisible ( I see the times but not the names)
If they seriously want to survive maybe they will start to give paying customers what they pay for.
