Freeview is a service that offers free digital TV and radio channels via your TV aerial and a Freeview set-top box. In the UK, Freeview offers 40 TV channels and 25 radio channels. There are no monthly subscription fees or installation charges. You are required to just pay a one-off nominal subscription fee.
Freeview covers almost all areas of the UK. You are given the option of choosing a digital box, a digital TV recorder or a digital TV. A digital box is the easiest way of viewing channels since it works in with your existing TV. A digital TV recorder can record and play back Freeview with ease while a digital TV has a built-in set-top box which can broadcast all Freeview channels.
