At those prices I'm considering moving to Freesat. £250 gets you a Humax freesat PVR.

Freesat has considerably more bandwidth. BBC Red button content on Freeview is currently only one channel, where Freesat has six (I believe). With the winter olympics currently on, it is obvious that one red button channel is not enough. Freesat is currently using 5 channels to show all events.
