Thanks for clarfying clarifying that.

Well non-internet connected Sky , Freesat will only have 5 live streams ( getting reduced to 1 after the olympics ) non-internet connected Freeview will only have 1 stream.

Wrong Skys STB is Internet connected as are some freesat boxes and Youview is freeview with Internet connectivity granted Skys STB can't run apps in its current form but Youview almost certainly will.

Good job I have a connected TV then :D although I'm not a massive fan of the Olympics in all honesty.

Yes but it will use your own broadband connection unlike Tivo which will use the 10mb dedicated broadband connection :)

No I get fibre optic from BT just for my TV just so I can prove you wrong.

Well for some people the Olympics will pass them by l suspect but l have always been a big sports fan so l will be glued to the action and having 24 streams will give us a great choice from which to pick what we want to watch.
