Re: V+ vs SKY+
Sky+ only records 1 channel while watching another, V+ records 2 channels.
Sky+ changes channel faster (V+ does take a couple of seconds to change channel but it's not as slow as otheres make out).
On V+ +1 channels (eg, dave+1, watch+1) are listed after the orignal channel (eg, dave is channel 128, dave+1 is channel 129), this is not the case on sky.
V+ channel guide is easier to read and also keeps the feed from the channel you were watching on screen in a mini view in the top right corner, sky doesn't (which I find annoying).
Virgin doesn't have all the 100's of shopping/gaming/gambling/pointless channels that Sky has (can only be a good thing)
V+ has about twice the recording capacity of a sky+ box (unless recording HD programs)
These are my own personal opinions from what I have experienced of both platforms (I have V+, the in-laws have sky+)
Hope this helps
