Caitríona Redmond: Streaming services could cost you €129 per month — will prices ever drop?

I may be ageing myself a little here when I tell tales of holding the rabbit ears in my hand and moving in minuscule steps around the sitting room to try and get the best signal and the least ‘snow’ on the television. At least then we didn’t have to pay for the TV, although it was a little bit of a saga to receive the optimal channels.
Growing up in the east of the country, we all knew when the weather was good, we could even pick up on the signal from the UK and tune in BBC and ITV channels. Forget about it if it was lashing rain outside with wind — we were stuck with RTÉ, and we could like it or lump it.
