This is like children in the playground. we all know that prime is 7 so what’s the problem Prime?

I live 1 hour south of sydney and I am unable to get 7TWO because of the nitwits at Prime.

get rid of the dummy spitters in Prime and get 7two on the air for regional Australia!

No doubt the genius management at Prime are trying to find away to make 72 a station where 50% of air time can become advertorials – just like Prime – the name itself a contradiction !
Regional Australia will always be the cities poor relation.

Where is the acma and other tv authorities, they are suppose to deal with rouge stations who are have no reason not to be broadcasting digital channels.

Prime takes 7 news , take 7 sport take other shows what has channel 7 the broadcaster.

class people. Get your act together and bring us what our city cousins have 7Two. Grow up prime we all can play in the same sand pit and enjoy tv at its best. Are you worried to many people will leave you station and find some one who thinks of their viewers first.

Here’s some irony for you. Foxtel will carry 7TWO from Nov 24th. I’m not sure what Austar’s plans are for it.

Like we have any choice!!

TV Stations can do what they like, because we can’t vote with out wallets.

I do wonder if Prime have just dug a great hole for themselves though. TV & Media complain about piracy and so on with regards to the Internet, and with Prime playing politics with such high profile shows as Heroes (new season starting tonight), I believe they’re just driving even more people straight into downloading the shows off the internet.

I’m dead-set against piracy, but you know what.. In this instance, I think Prime need to be shown that the consumer won’t stand for this type of treatment.

Jared, the source of this information was Prime management. I can’t vouch for whether it is the actual reason, but it is the reason they gave.
