    Techophobe....

    Ok, ok...so technology has never been something that I spend big money on.

    I never even purchased a walkman or a discman. My current desktop was made by my BIL free for babysitting credits.

    I refused to buy a set top box ever for the TV. I waited until a 32 inch digital LED TV went down to $500. Even then, after finding out it was a returned item, I asked for more off so picked it up for $470.

    My question....why are there so many channels now? Can you look at an online guide at all?

    Thanks
    Kek

    PS - typo.....I meant "technophobe".

    I have foxtel so use their guide. I'd assume each of the FTA channels have their own program guides on their own websites.

    but then I googled, and voila! http://www.ebroadcast.com.au/tv/
    (You should select Melbourne, obvs)

    Oh and the number of channels has something to do with digital television and a change in legislation or something. I think.

    It was too big for a bedroom apparently.
