There is also the very good reliability and great service I get from VM that I would prefer not to take a chance on with Sky; I've never used Sky so can't compare, but I know I'm happy with VM in that regard.

But these things won't be enough for some people to stay with VM, so when Sky get fibre, VM need to get definitive USPs. This is why I find it strange that VM aren't getting a move on with multiroom and more Tivo apps, because Sky will soon be a very credible alternative for many VM users IMHO.
Couldn't agree more , for you TIVO is an essential part of your package however I suspect a lot choose VM for BB speed , with a Sky fibre product ever nearer now is the time VM need to vastly up their game or risk losing customers , Sky have many other products/channels in the pipeline this year.
