RE: OT: SKY +

["Ian Willoughby" <ian@xxxxxxx>]

Must resist, two much hardware not enough bank balance :-(
I must admit AC3 and watch and record almost have me convinced, also SWMBO
works for Sky so I can get it cheaper but my Tivo has 120Gb disk (I know I
can do this with Sky+) and I have a nice shiny Network connection as well.
If Sky would do AC3 on a no Sky+ box life would be wonderful (even better
if it had two LNB inputs and 2 outputs).

I'd second that - I have both Sky+ and a Tivo - Sky+ twin tuners are the
big selling point for me - record one channel while watching another,
something Tivo can't do without having two Sky tuner boxes (I think???)

It's excellent - it's fast (er than TiVo) and less cumbersome. It is less
"intelligent", but then I didnt use those features when I had a
TiVo
anyway !

Everything in one box. Twin channel recording coming in the next few
months. Dumps out RGB,SVideo, and AV3 via optical.

Hi everyone.

I'm thinking of getting Sky+, and having read the technical facts, i'd
like any opinions good or bad on how it operates in practise.

Any feedback would be useful

Thanks

Dave
