Not like a Virgin
Virgin, with its next-gen TiVo box, has packed many new features into its service – from web content to recommendations to the ability to scroll backwards through the EPG and watch old programmes through catch-up – and Lenz did admit that this puts the company "in a good place," but he is a little dubious about so much focus on features, believing Sky's simpler approach is still working.
"Innovation and product development just for the sake of it is useless," said Lenz.
"It is all fun, but you have to create the product and land it in the marketplace and make it a successful business.
"We have to make calls all of the time where something is a very good idea, but right now is not the moment to make it successful.
"If your messaging can't focus on that product, then this can cause problems in the market."

I'm sure the Sky fanboys on here will agree with Sky though...
