I like the sound of that, Muppetman! It will be interesting to see if we are offered a Horizon box further down the line.

I was quite impressed that it had some of the features of the TIVO, but what really got to me was the five channels to record at the same time and the 400TB - that's really nice!

It's 400GB ---- less than the smallest Tivo. And no whishlists. Hope it doesn't come to VM with those specs.

I think he may be having arguments with Sky now, who will be trying to rip him off about his satellite dish.

Actually I think the biggest coup is that it'll apparently be on TV Anywhere as well. It's not on Sky Go, BT are launching their own streaming app which presumably would give them an "in" to potential customers, and yet it appears that whatever the pricing structure of the channels themselves, Virgin have got themselves a deal to include it in their own streaming app. I can't think of any reason why BT would have to allow that so if it happens then it's a really good effort from Virgin.

I agree if its added to XL it will be an excellent deal in fact it would bring VM back into reckoning for me , I am however finding it hard to believe it will be added under these circumstances I'd be delighted to be wrong though.
