I think we all know that our stuff isn't really stored in a little cumulus in the sky, Hugh! :D

You would be amazed how many don’t...

It seems Apple TV will be one of the devices delivering TV over the Internet via the Q app , it’s already available in Germany. If you search on YouTube for Sky Q Apple TV and Sky Q Samsung TV you’ll see videos showing the Service.

Very unlikely my area only get's up to 40mb speeds via the Openreach cables one that isn't fast enough for 4K streaming and once you start watching HD channels on a few boxes and browse the web the speeds will soon drop

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

G.fast is being installed in many areas , Openreach claims it will be available to over 10 million premises by 2020 this should help many properties with those problems you mention.

Hopefully

It's only the fact that VM are the only ones providing a decent speed in my area that has stopped me switching up to 40mb isn't fast enough especially when it could be as low as 25mb at peak times

Sky without cable or satellite: Sky X launches in Austria

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

is sky x not just now tv for the Austrians?

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

Apparently not , in Austria Now TV is called Sky Ticket the articles I've read suggest that Sky X will replace this product.

I forecast a lot of 'buffering'. A hardrive is always going to be more reliable.

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

There's no buffering with Now TV.

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

If you have sufficient bandwidth of course. If not the picture quality can degrade significantly.

I do have one question though where will people record from to the cloud if the future doesn’t have linear channels?

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

You do not actually record anything into the cloud. As I understand it, the programmes will be there already; you simply bookmark your choices.

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

From the description Sky X in Austria is not Sky Q over the internet - it may look like a Sky Q box in the picture but from what they say it's just a streaming box, very similar in capability to the Now TV Smartbox. The big difference is that it seems to have HD Sky channels, which Now TV still doesn't have (although the 720p is very good).
Sky Q over the internet was promised by Sky for 2018 but never materialised. HD Now TV has also been "coming soon" for some time.
