That's true. When you have fibre optic broadband it's easy to forget that some parts of the country (not sure how much though) don't yet have this.

I guess it's mostly rural or sparsely populated areas.

Maybe not, but I was replying to him, not you, anyway, it is still my opinion that Atlantic broadcast some decent shows, and I would be surprised if most people didn't find something on there that they liked.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

Agreed, Max. There is no disagreement that the good shows are surrounded by rubbish, but that is true of all the smaller entertainment channels, regrettably.

Unfortunately, I think a lot of people miss the real gems in the schedule for this reason - they don't tend to look hard enough! Remember 'The Night Of', for example? Brilliant series.

Not for us old fossils in our household.;)

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

It's only important if you have a larger screen, Den. If you watch on a screen less than 40", HD will do just fine.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

You need a much bigger screen than that to benefit from UHD in most rooms.

HDR is where you'll see the benefit

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

The difference between HD and SD is that whatever distance you are from the screen you are in focus (try it), apart from that on small screen tv there is no other appreciable difference.

I would image that UHD gives you extra detail (and vibrancy of colours), whether this is appreciable on screens below 48" only the individual will be able to tell.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

We have a 49" and UHD is definitely better.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

An awful lot of people waiting for SkyQ on broadband are going to be disappointed.

BT in our village is unable to support their own UHD channel as 50Mbps is classed as not suitable to provide that channel along with other channels and services.

The viilage next to use have recently had BT Superfast Broadband installed and now get 30Mpbs.

Superfast Broadband is only defind as above 20Mpbs.

Those over 60Mpbs may be OK - but the service is will be limmited to who can actually do multi-records over a selection of HD/UHD channels and still expect computers to browse fast and somebody to play games etc.

A reduced SkyQ via Broadband is most likely - no where near the current satellite service.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

Multiple recordings using the same system BT TV does is pointless it really needs recordings to the cloud to be worth having.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

You need to be able to record to your cloud without the need of your incoming broadband being used.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

That's how cloud recordings work , a copy of the show is made available automatically for you.

In the US YouTube TV allows unlimited recordings and storage and can be saved for 9 months.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

Yep - completely remote from your house - from the Sky system straight to your cloud without having to go through your home network to get to your cloud to record.

But even then - some people with 2-3 televisions (or a/v devices) may soon find there internet just can not do it if wanting to access several things at once.

VM users should not have any issues - but many of those using BT owned systems could find the SkyQ via Broadband is just not practical.

Re: When sky Q over internet begins, will you consider moving from VM?
 

Completely agree , we are fortunate to receive full speed over Openreach so our 76mb connection would generally be fine as we rarely ever have over 2 Sky boxes watching simultaneously.

The problem comes for those further away who only receive slower speeds. In my opinion Sky is dipping it's toes in the water with this product however I do believe going forward with things such as G.fast more and more will see this as a viable option. Not sure on what timeframe but eventually the dish will go but certainly not in the short term.

I wouldn't say VM users wouldn't have any issues there are areas reported who suffer with peak time congestion.

Never say no to anything ,is likely, well that is very much down to Virgin upping their game
