So if you want to watch TV without the threat of the picture freezing, or breaking up, you need to join Virgin. It's no good having hundreds of channels if people have trouble watching them in the Winter
This ^

I lost many more recordings as a Sky customer through poor weather than I ever have as a TiVo customer due to poor EPG data, and the only time I ever found out about it was when I sat down to watch it and it was too late to watch the repeat. Not only does TiVo have a list of when its not going to manage to record something, it actively finds the reruns so I don't have to. By the time I find out about a failure on TiVo its already put it right. That IS a vastly better Tv experience than Sky.
