| 639397 | 2008-02-11 08:26:00 | Must admit to not being a great fan, but I am impressed by their success. It's hard to make a dent in the American market, particularly one so insular. Even The Beatles had a hard job, initially. It's really great to see Kiwis doing well. I'm very surprised that they did not fall victim to The Great Kiwi Clobbering Machine. Very fortunate. If the Kiwis do not knock them then they must be good. And so far as Prime is concerned, the reference may be to the fact that they do not have complete coverage. |

It is on Prime, which is not one of the main 3 free to air channels, and it also can't be accessed by a lot of NZers. It is also not on Freeview, which is a major problem for those of us who live in the country. I guess that if it was made in NZ, they wouldn't have been as successful moneywise, so it was perhaps a good thing for them that TVNZ didn't see it's potential when they had the opportunity. The guys behind it have also been named Wellingtonians of the Year :) |

It is also not on Freeview, which is a major problem for those of us who live in the country . Well looking at the map, on Prime's website, it is available in a lot of places around NZ, free on UHF . Granted this is mostly around the main centres and not out in the country . But it is also available on Sky Digital's "decoder rental" @ $18 . 29 a month for the rest of the country - Which is what I have . This also gives TV1, TV2, TV3, C4 & Maori . |
