With the Sky box its all so fast and smoother so a pleasure to use. 1.5TB of storage is plenty of space too.

Just seen the entire game of thrones series in HD in the on demand section so looking forward to watching some of them back to back.

The back catalogue seems huge. How big is the VM on demand in comparison? How do the paid movies and stuff compare between both providers?
I had VM Tivo and the VOD layout was alot better than V+HD. I think the On Demand content is alot better layed out and quicker to access than Tivo. Its also good that you cna download the content to the STB and watch at a later time even if the content is removed from On Demand not long after
