They do have a right to charge what they want - its a business, I'm well aware of that. I never said they didn't have the right to do this.

I don't see why you have quoted my post - you haven't actually agreed or disagreed with anything i've said. You have just said, if you don't like it, don't pay for it. Doesn't really help the discussion. And if everyone took that view, where would be the need for innovation. Everyone would just sit on their laurels.
becuase oyu are saying since it ais a pvr it should be free liek teh v+ i am syaing it is different and sky also charge a premium for there premium pvr

When the TV drive was launched, both sky and Virgin charged a monthly fee for PVR functionality. Both have now dropped that. Don't encorage these companies (by posting a willing aceptance of it) to go back to those days.
