I wouldn't say either are 'guilty' of any scam.

Sky and VM probably know these current boxes appeal to a very, very small group of their customer bases and price the kit accordingly to cover their manufacturing and development costs.

I doubt 1TB of HDD capacity is something the masses will go for and VM are very wise to go down the smaller capacity route.

In my opinion.

I suppose it depends if it has the same features.
