The standard is 160GB (PVR3) it's £99

80GB is reserved for use by Sky* the other 80GB is for customer use**.

To be fair I find 80GB more than enough and I use mine a huge amount but if you want the 160 AFAIK you'll need to take the HD. How many people really need to store 160 half hour programs?

*for a yet to be released on demand service.
**there is a whisper (and that's all it is at the moment) that once the OD service is launched you may be able to claw back that 160GB if you don;t want to use it

Also - I like the way VM say there's no charge for HD content, AFAIK they hardly have any.
