When the VM packs came out I was sorely tempted (already having cable in for the BB), but then I remembered the quality difference, downtime and piccy freeze.
Going by Joe's posts the problems still are there in part, which is a pity, Murdoch needs valid competition.
I personally wouldn't miss sky one or all the shopping channels etc, so for me it comes back to plain old reliability and cost, as it will for most punters.

Shame, though, here's hoping it all shakes out....SOON!
