There's a few others.... link
I find the last one really useful, myself.

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

TiVo and Sky previously had a deal which I imagine has expired since they're now with Sky's rivals, so I'm sure if Sky implement this there will be a nice man visiting with a lawsuit which I'm sure will please Sky in their current state.

Sky have already reached their peak, now their shares are down, the buyers have gone and that large heap of cash that they usually throw at people is going down down down into a burning two-guitar-picks-facing-each-other of fire.

If VM can survive with debts of £6 billion then I'm sure sky can survive if they end up in £6 billion of debts. But as they currently make a profit I'm sure they are quite happy.

But as they are about to stop the multiroom HD fee and they froze prices this year saving me probably £180 a year but not reducing my services, they seem to be doing ok.

I posted this another thread about what features Sky may or may not add.

Yeah it will be interesting to see what features they introduce, but not at the cost of a price increase. The price freeze with the HD Multiroom subs being dropped and a 1 or 2 extra features will keep me more than happy.

Features that aren't essential causing a price rise WILL NOT be welcome.

The price would usually go up by around £3ish a month in september for skyworld but its froze this year along with the dropping of HD multiroom a subscriber with 2 multiroom boxes with HD and the price freeze could consider themselves to of saved almost £300 over the next 12 months for the exact same service .

This is much more important than anything else.

And they could also consider that they've been paying (at least) £300 too much for years.

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

I imagine if anyone thinks they're paying too much they simply reduce services until they get to an amount they're happy with.

Yeah a mess, still not as bad a the mobile space though!

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

I remember reading Tivo patents will begin expiring between 2015 and 2018. My guess would be that while others try to imitate and get around Tivo patents, Tivo will be unleashing newer technolgies over the next couple of years to see off their competitors.

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

Lets hope so ,all the better for us.

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

Yes l have no doubt about that.

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

Why do you start 95% of your replys start with "yes"

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

Because No uses up the other 5%.:)

Re: Tivo users, advice for Sky user?
 

I think Skys next big move is a multiroom DVR,

Whispers are the Sky+HD 1Tb stock is to be reduced and the box replaced with perhaps a 2tb multiroom DVR networked with the new none recordable SkyHD box.

So you'll be able to stream recorded content to various boxes around the house.
