You seem to ommit the most major negative for Sky though, that it's a satellite service. Fine when its dry, but when it rains...especially heavy rain, a satellite service is useless.

When BT can actually offer me a BT Infinity/decent fibre service, I'll be buried six feet under, so I won't hold out hope on that one. For those that are lucky enough to live near a BT exchange, perhaps it's possible to get a decent triple service from one supplier only. I don't, so I can't tell.

And despite the recent improvements to vm cable, faster speeds and tivo, there are glowing ommisions that does not make it the "all you can eat" service that cable was first touted as when it launched 20 years ago.

I am still waiting for a company to offer me a half decent tv service, a half decent telephone service and a half decent internet service all under the same roof for a reasonable price.
To be honest my satellite signal has been lost once in six months with rain and that was only for around a minute or so , I find it has to be torrential rain to knock it off , I take your point though.
