Premiere is soon to "sky" and with the new name and a new program schedule is. What is more or less the old one.

I will not repeat everything that has dogfood clearly in his blog regarding has criticized the new programs from Premiere / sky. My impression is that it is part of these are quite a number air. It has a couple of programs pushed back and forth, renamed and / or replaced. Whether the new subscription structure to get through, then is another thing. My father, for example, just sport for the Formula One debut. Under the new system, he would take the basic package and sports book. Instead of 20 €, he would then pay 33 €. Not nice. What does this mean for the motor sport?

Now, not everything bad on Premiere. After all, the station still shows the largest selection of good movies, interesting thematic channels (Discovery, etc.) and during exercise after all, there are a few highlights. So I'm glad. that the F3 Euro Series, Formula BMW will be shown and will also be considered. Where else could you see these very important junior series then? The Formula One transmission is very good and is operated by Premiere at great expense. And the core program comes with no commercial breaks. This is not to be underestimated even in international comparison. So much for the better.

The negative aspects of Premiere has probably everyone in the last few years have come to know. NASCAR, FIA GT and what about the A1 seems not yet completely clarified. The football friends are suffering since last year because Premiere neglected, at least the European leagues, more and more. Weirs can be against something so difficult, although the level of sports coverage in the portal had since I Premiere (about 2002, before that times between 1997 and 2000) pruned heavily was, without which it would have given financial compensation. In the meantime, Premiere customers have enjoyed times with pampigen call centers, it is time for the consumer advocates scandalized , and it has not held due to incorrect Federal Policies for a bloody nose fetched. In other words, in the last three years, Premiere has not done much for his customers.

The customers have spoken their frustration in various forums of the soul. Well, there is always a spinner are going to find anything bad, but have gradually more and more people on websites, blogs or forums together, their usually not very positive opinion about the station, known to have done. If you google for Germany "" premiere experience "like getting the whole load in terms of program and customer satisfaction.

The question is when such things but always has been learned from the mistakes? How honest do you deal with customers?

Other colleagues and I will have already noted several times that official requests to either very strong premiere delayed or not answered partially correct. Why missing this or that sport, why you have not purchased the rights NASCAR - answers you have, as a paying customer, get it. And so I feel it has to be extremely bold, when I at Heise read something like:

According to Focus spokesman Torsten Fricke premiere denied the cancellation list did not exist, however, that major decisions for the program, the interest of the audience was.

I had to laugh really loud at first. Well, after all, the dissatisfaction of the customers have to "focus" highly spilled. Premiere has the good fortune that they have no competition. Murdoch would not be increased, but this would have a spin-off Sky Sports program opened with reasonable - I am sure that the existing Premiere customers have changed with flying colors.

Different messages

- Alonso, Renault has reportedly called the "worst team" this season called . Optimism I've somehow different in mind.

- Since yesterday I grumbled about the PR of the F1 teams Ferrari and today comes from the message that the engine failure of Massa by a broken connecting rod has been triggered, the motor probably has torn completely. With Raikkonen, there was also a problem because there is no message to.

- The Sprint / Nextel Group, main sponsor of NASCAR, keep up the losses. Reason is that those running away, in spite of the many advertising customers in droves. Only in the last quarter of adopted more than 900,000 customers. Sprint has a sponsor Contract until end of 2013, but also apply as a takeover candidate by T-Mobile USA. Not that the Charlotte must cancel the walls pink soon.

And what else?
I'm on the road again tomorrow, so the preview is in addition to the weekend schedule until Friday.
