Before joining SKY recently I didn't have SKY Movies. TiVo was a great tool for finding movies from various channels in HD. Channel 4 and Channel 5 over the weekend offer up some really good movies. Sy-fy HD also offered up the odd hidden gem. At one point I had around 90 HD movies stored on my TiVo box.

Couldn't agree more.

Whilst I enjoy a wider range of channels with SKY I do miss TiVo and the broadband speeds from Virgin. Oh and paying £10.00 per month for ESPN ain't too much fun either but I do get ESPN America in HD.
