4K tivo anyone? Maybe not coming to VM just yet :-)

Ultra-slim new TiVo box cuts through commercials, streams 4K

Everyone skips the ads anyway lol - Instead of pressing the play button at the right time during recordings, it will just be a one button "SKIP" :-)

Wow! It skips through advert breaks. That will please the advertisers. They also seemed to have named it after a certain athlete that's been appearing on VM's commercials. The mind boggles.:eek:

1. You don't need VM to get Netflix - in fact, you don't even need a TV (computer, laptop, tablet, phone). You pay the same irrespective of your BB supplier so the fact that it's available on VM is irrelevent.
2. There would be very little difference between the PPV movies available on VM and those available on both BT & Sky. As part of my subscription with Sky, I am able to watch over 1000 movies on demand. If that's not enough, there's Sky Box Office & Sky Store (Rent/buy with a DVD in the mail). There are also over 300 box sets available at any time on demand.

I thought you had Now TV, OB? The OD movies and box sets are available via Now TV subscriptions. Maybe you've not investigated that aspect of Now TV.

Y I do believe that more streaming services should be added to the Tivo - having everything on one box is very useful for most people.

I'd also like to have all the streaming services on one box, unfortunately the current TIVO isn't it, its too slow starting up the apps

Or a samsung TV, I can't think of any streaming service that isn't on it, it even has ITV Player.

I guess the new ones have NowTV, unfortunately my 3 yo one doesn't.

My new TV will be a dumb one i think, Samsung servers seem to go down sometimes and that kills all the streaming until they fix it.

You can add FOX's YourTV to that list of missing Freeview Channels.

As of today YourTV is not testing on Virgin Media (Info from Media Boy Sources).

YourTV is set to launch on Thursday at 1pm on Freeview and Sky.

Virgin sources say that Lifetime HD will launch tomorrow (no channel number confirm) and Fox will be moving permanently from L to M+ from Tomorrow as well.

I think the only way you could have that is by buying an Android box with Play Store on it.

If i hadn't bought a firetv i'd probably go for a droidbox.
