It is good to attract more people to watch the English channel, but as I
said, we do have the Chinese captions right there, why we still need the
bilingual sound?  There is no point to do so.  I don't think there is
any people in Hong Kong can not read Chinese and enjoy watching the
English channels.

Also, as a reader of this group,  high quality audio and video is always
our objective,  down grade to mono sound surely is not our aim.
