Yes it's true, channels are an issue, but less so now. The main problem is Sky Atlantic and the additional HD channels we have been hankering after.

But really, most of the channels we don't get are not worth having. I am not impressed simply by the number of channels Sky has.

I have seen both systems in action and as my daughter has Sky (reluctantly, because she lives in a non-cabled area), I am up to date with what they currently offer.

VM is still for me, but things may change over time. BT is interesting, but they have a long way to go before they tempt me.

Sky might come up with the goods as far as I am concerned in the future, but they are not there yet. And if the next TIVO lets you store unlimited recordings in the cloud, it will take a lot to tempt me to any other system! My 1TB TIVO box is certainly fantastic, but it varies between being 83%-91% full. It's a constant battle to keep it down now and I cannot record as much HD as I would like.

The more you get, the more you want, I guess.
