How hard would it have been to implement that system while they recoded it properley???

I think some of you might be expecting a bit too much from the service, things like player cam and camera angles are not provided anymore (or I should say I haven't seen such features in the near 2 months I have had Sky).
Basically during a live EPL match you get highlights (pretty poor PQ), stats and a choice of audio (i.e. no commentary).
Fanzone isn't available on all EPL games either, Scottish Football and Football League coverage has no red button at all (unless they throw extra games on behind the red button at the end of the season, there appear to be no 'interactive' features as such).
Overall it's very good and a great addition to VM but it's best feature is match choice and the UCL multiscreen, I think this is the main selling point for football fans as they provide actual content. A lot of the other features are OK but nothing more.
In my opinion.
