popper. your average punter in the street will not care about the compression system used. They probably wouldn't even know about it. They just care that the box works, doesn't cost too much to rent, and can be used to watch and/or record TV.
However, that is all off topic (as is compression). I would like to remind you that the topic is "Is there an NTL PVR?". Not "What compression are NTL planning to use?"

You may think I'm anti ntl, but when they do something market leading & truly technically impressive I'll say so, until that point.....

Neil, I never said you should be impressed. I've said all along that there is NO REASON why NTL should not have had a PVR for years.
However, I did make a point that you should try the box before concluding that it is worse than Sky +.
