Moved to Sky+ sub-forum

The currently available Sky+ box (PVR3) only has 80GB of space available for the user. The HDD size is 160GB in total, however the rest of the space is "reserved for future use by Sky" (e.g. their upcoming Push-VOD service). [the PVR1 version was only 40GB total, & PVR2 was only 80GB total]

There did used to be a "Sky+160" box available, made by Thomson, which had a full 160GB available to the user. It's been discontinued, though.

Installation is free if you take multiroom. Don't know how this offer, or the price of the box itself, is affected though if you're already a normal Sky customer or Sky+ customer.
