Thank you for sharing such video relive the past memories

The cards were stacked against BSB. All those stupid rules set down by the incompetence that was the IBA. Then the incompetent management at BSB itself. Equipment not ready. First the chips in the decoder boxes, no squarriels working, then the battle for movie rights and how much each side massively overpaid. Thing is BSB was the better of the two.

Shame they abandoned the MAC system and the marco polo satellite system… Guess the numbers didn’t make sense

Also with just 5 channels on offer and a lot of money being lost, plus BSB equipment production delays, it was obvious who was going to be the overall winner. Quantity not quality with the superb MAC system won the day.

Sky was much better and they clearly won the war. Nevermind the BSB technology! Sky gave the teenagers of the 90,s Mtv Game over!!!
