Get the V+ HD box if you want:

-The ability to record 2 channels while watching a 3rd
-The ability to watch HD broadcasting and VOD (yes, yes not many channels but they are coming by years end rumor has it)
-The ability to record your favourite shows automatically with "series link"

The only issues seem to be the slow channel changing, it takes 1 - 4 seconds to change a channel but most people use the EPG anyway unless you like my family who tend to "flip" though the channels.

This will be fixed in an upcoming update. There are more issues if you plan to use the box after midnight but these too are going to be sorted.

It does have some great features, for instance I recorded a movie (White Chicks on FIVE) a few weeks back and watched it a few hours later after watching a program on MTV and I can now watch it as many times as I want.

It is a top notch bit of kit for the price and if you plan to keep your Virgin TV service then I say go for it!
