Cable Forum - Merged:-Comcast makes Bid for Sky

Yeah I`m going to bin Sky Movies too and see where else I can save a bit of money too. The films on Sky Movies are dreadful,only watched one since the mrs kindly signed me up to it a couple of months ago. I didn`t know you could cancel on line now either.

I don't think its too bad a value if you already have Sky Sports at around £8 more but I certainly wouldn't pay £16.50 for it.

True if they showed films you liked which in my case isn`t so.

Times have changed though, with a smart TV you can stream movies for free from several websites.

You can get virtually any content you want over the internet without paying , personally though I'm happy to pay for services what meet my needs , each to their own I guess.

I don't blame anyone for reviewing their sub's as premium content is getting more and more expensive and the choice is getting greater , I tend to play one service off against the other it usually nets you a discount.

I've just downloaded The Wolf of Wall Street to my Sky box directly from the Sky Movies weekly email. Very impressive! :)

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Updated the sky+ app on ipad this morning. Had a browse in new and recommended and decided to have a look at Criminal Minds S10E01. I find it's available On Demand but, for some reason, there is no option to record it only an option to watch it.

This is the first time I have come across this. I checked some other Eps in On Demand and they all have an option to Record.

Is this a bug or is there something special about the Ep in question?

Its because Criminal Minds S10E01 has already been sent to the box , basically the Old Showcase section for those who don't have their boxes connected to On Demand.

I never look in the Showcase section. Can't recall if I still have a Showcase section :)

Thanks for the explanation, I have never come across the situation before.

On further investigation I noticed only the HD version is affected so I am now downloading the SD version.
