I suppose in one way its good and one way its bad.

Good - As the STB are fully covered and we dont have to pay for someone to come out to Repair or Replace (For the life of the contract)

Bad - STB are cheaper elsewhere (but I can see the point)

When I was with Sky I had two HD boxes - I bought the original at the old original £250 and then 2nd off ebay for £50.

Sky let you buy box's from wherever, all you have todo is call them to get the card registered to the STB but then Sky charge for call outs and repair/replacements.
