Sky Packages allows you to make your own tailor made
TV package, so that you only pay for the
television you want to watch. The main benefit of this is that it is totally flexible around what your television interests are, and therefore you don't pay for any channels that don't interest you and will never be watched.
In addition to more than 200 free to air TV and radio channels included when you purchase any
Sky TV package, such as the terrestrial channels (i.e. BBC1, ITV etc.) and all of those usually available through Freeview (i.e. ITV2, BBC News 24 etc.), you are able to select as many of the 6 available Entertainment Packs as you like, and either or both of the Premium Packs offered.

One Entertainment pack costs £16.50 per month, but then additional ones can be added for just £1 extra per month each, therefore meaning all 6 entertainment packages are £21.50 a month.
The Sky Sports Pack can be added onto your package for an additional £19 per month, or just Sky Sports 1 or 2 for an additional £11 per month. The Sky Movies Pack costs an additional £17 per month, with Sky Movies 1 or 2 available for £9 per month.

The Sky+ Box enables users to record, pause and rewind live television. The Sky+HD box improves picture detail by up to 4 times and makes colours much more vibrant than they would appear on a normal TV. Sky Multi-room can also be added to the package for an additional £9.75 a month if you wish to have Sky in an additional room.
