Q1 Is there anyway to get Virgin to either change the hard drive or swap the box for one with more capacity.
Q2 Are the SA and Panosonic boxes the same capacity.
Q3 After a discussion a couple of years ago Virgin reduced my monthly premium by around £12 if I paid a fee to purchse my box althogh they said nothing would change with regard to repairs etc. If I now own it presumably I could swap the Hard drive mysetf.
Q4. Im wonder if the Tivio box with its 1TB drive but no idea of cost
Thanks in advance.
Kev
Q1 No but see Q4

Q2 Yes

Q3 You do not own it what you did was pay a lump sum to avoid paying a subscription monthly for it. Therefore you cant change the hard drive.

Q4 Believed to be £199 plus £3 per month.
