They're taking the mick out of Michael for not giving us live feed. I want to watch the housemates sleeping, snoring, flipping y'know talking in their sleep, now I can't. And Wwy? Because they're dead stingey.

It's only a matter of time before they sell BB to the highest bidder ...
It is ridiculous that there will be no live feed this year
But i am not that bothered really as i have barely watched any live feed from the past 4 BB series

Yup Shar, certainly looks that way doesn't it? 
JF... I haven't really watched much LF either since BB5 tbh, but it's great when there's nothing else on, you can just flick it on especially if they're doing a task.

Its going to be very strange with no LF, CBB was bad enough and that was only four weeks, can't imagine the whole summer without it 
live feed or no live feed , ill be watching

Bring it on I say!!! If CH4 don't want it, then let someone have it that will respect it (and us) for what it is.
Not the best management decision to devalue it prior to selling it off though!
I'm not sure if I will watch it or not without live feed. I think I will have to accept what I am watching for what it is (i.e. a programme that is edited in order for me to favour who the production team want me to favour).
So on that basis there is no way I will be voting.
Mind you, given the way the forum was dumped I would have been unlikely to part with a penny anyway.

thething is tho you fdont get the whole story with no live feed.....how often is it that BB powers to be releasea story saying one thing happened...fr us all to know it was being twisted and manipulated....its nothing morethan a mini soap now
The bedrock of Big Brother WAS live feed.
I just couldn't get that interested in CBB
without the live feed ~ and I certainly didn't
vote.
I wish Ch4 would sell it on and give someone
else the chance to take it further/return it
to the old format.
But then Ch4 management decisions ain't been
that hot lately.

it will end up on some remote and distant digital channel 
BB was the only thing I watched on C4, and now they've scrapped the live feed, I won't be watching at all. I wonder how long they think they can sustain E4 now too - live feed was the only thing worth watching on it. Friends repeats on a loop? No thanks...
Still, at least it means I won't be chained to the telly every Friday night this summmer!

I think there will be the same limited LF as we had with CBB.
Far from ideal albeit.

There will still be live feed, just not the 24 hour feed that some of you are used to.
I normally enjoy watching the highlights, ducking in and out of little brother (mainly for the news), and then joining everyone on the forum for a good chat about what's been going on.
It is tiresome to hear over and again who won't be watching. If you don't want to please don't. There is no need to be all flouncy about it. It would be nice for someone to give the show the billing that it deserves. I would be very sorry if it was the last series as I've watched BB from the very beginning.
It's a shame that we've lost our forum over at C4, but it wasn't just the BB forum that went. They ALL did. It wasn't personal. If I remember correctly they are going to start something up for the BB fanatics such as ourselves.
Any road, to cut the long story short, I'll still be watching. As I remember they tried to edit the show to make me like Nikki G, it never worked then

I hardly watched CBB this year without L/F and that was only 4 weeks, I certainly won't bother watching for many weeks without it
I will watch it....I'm an addict 
However, I don't think I will be enslaved like I have been in previous years. With just the edited highlights to watch...I'll probably be able to miss shows without withdrawal symptoms...I won't vote though, not without LF

Same here
And they cut LF just when I got a red button!!! 
I love BB but to be honest I wont be so into it this year if there is no LF just happy to be on this forum lol
without being able to watch the live feed or at least read on the forms whats going on it will be impossible to get into or get to know the hm's, i already know that the lowlights show is a load of bollocks and often bears no resembelence to the actual reality so why should i want to follow it? eastenders or corrie are probably closer to reality than bb is with out a live feed so whilst i may watch the launch night its the only thing i intend to watch on any ch4 related channel or website.
ok i'm only 1 person but if more people would just completely boycott anything to do with ch4 then maybe they'd change their mind and restore it, after all if they dont have the viewers they wont get the advertisers and without adverts they are screwed and boy do they they deserve to be screwed after the way they have screwed we fans recently.

Hi Claire. Dan used to post quite regularly on DS some months ago. I wonder did you see his posts? I was delighted eveyone was nice to him.
