Why do they all have freeview?

crazymac:
I've been looking around for a new TV for the sitting room as my current ones sound is fubar.

I already have Sky so there is no need for freeview etc, and I am looking about 32 inch screen size.

But here's the rub, THEY ALL COME WITH FREEVIEW!! WHY??? So many have sky these days that surely there must be an option for ne freeview??

Or am I missing something here? Is there an advantage to having freeview as well as Sky?

Yoshi:
Freeview is the replacement for standard terrestrial, so therefore tellys will come with it as it will be the standard tuner thingumy :D

Bob696:
You could plug your old telly into a normal arial and recieve ITV/BBC yes?

Freeview is just the digital version of what your old telly could do with a few more channels.

That does make sense, but it looks to me that they are making so much of them coming with Freeview that it strikes me they are charging extra for it?

Analogue will be redundant in a couple or so years so you will need a digital tuner to view any sort of TV.
