I have had V+ for over a year with no signficant problems, the odd spontaneous reboot but nothing to worry about.
I think keeping it cool is the key, dont keep it in a glass fronted cabinet it needs air circulation.
The functionality and ease of use is good, I dont have a problem with EPG or Channel change time, but then again I have never had Sky+.
VOD is quick and the now "integrated" BBC iPlayer is superb.
I beleive that the V+ is also better when copying recorded content to a DVD recorder, on V+ you can set it up to export, press the button and away you go with all normal viewing and recording facilites, Sky+, I beleive, forces you to watch the programme you are copying. Maybe someone with Sky+ can verify for me.....I may be wrong
Also installation is simpler ! You dont need a phone line plugged into it or multiple cables from the dish.
