The Sky Sports pack £18 costs per month and provides Sky Sports
channels only (Sky Sports 1, 2, 3 & 4). ESPN, is a premium stand-alone service, which is available on the Sky platform. However, the subscription costs an additional £12 per month. Illogical as it might seem, 'Sky Sports News', 'Eurosport 1 & 2', 'At the Races', 'the Extreme Sports Channel', and 'ESPN Classic' are not considered to be Sports channels - and are not included in the Sky Sports Pack. To watch any of these channels, you must subscribe to the 'News and Events' pack (one of the 'Entertainment' packs). The first Entertainment pack costs £18 per month - and each additional Entertainment pack costs £1 (or you can subscribe to all Entertainment packs for £23 per month). It follows that if your present subscription includes any of the Entertainment packs, it will cost you £1 per month to add 'News and Events'. Otherwise, 'News and Events' will cost £18 per month. To check the content of the various packs, visit www.sky.com/quickbuy/build and click on 'Not sure what Pack contains your favourite channels?' (or visit http://www.sky.com/quickbuy/help/tvP...pupAnchor_701). "Third Time Lucky" wrote in message ...

Correction to my previous reply.
The ESPN Premium channel costs £9 per month - if your Sky subscription includes the Sky Sports 1, Sky Sports 2, or the full Sky Sports pack. Otherwise, it costs £12 per month on its own.

This is *ONLY* illogical if you consider that Sky Sports Subscribers should get these channels! I definitely want Eurosport *WITHOUT* being forced to pay for Sky Sports. |
