Figured the tivo would be better than the V+ box, wish I had got to try it at least once.
I think the downloaded file makes the fast forward/rewind and everything work a bit more responsive/smoother over the streaming too. Just had a thought...could you unplug the Sky box and take it somewhere else without a satellite and watch the downloaded stuff still? As its downloaded I would have thought it was possible in theory unless its blocked with no sat attached?

Is that based on the fact that VM have been providing VOD longer so have had longer to build up a library, or based on how much is available at any one time?
As I didn't use it often I can't be sure but having a quick look today, it seems Sky have a lot more HD VOD than I remember seeing on VM. I was on M+ with virgin so maybe that made a difference too.
