Let's just get this straight - this is the work of an absolute money minded corporation who are not interested in customer satisfaction. VM have the right model - if you've taped it during the period of subscription and stored it on an encrypted device - there's no-one else on the planet would deny you the right to watch it later, at your convenience.
If Sky think people will simply pick up the phone and re-subscribe, they're very much mistaken. This kind of business ethic has the complete opposite effect - people will be discouraged from giving them more of their hard earned money.
"Sky. Believe in better"? Believe in money...

If you subscribed to Lovefilm for a few months then cancelled would they let you keep the disc until you had time to watch it.
