We've changed Sky Go –
but we're giving you something extra
Hello , We've changed the way Sky Go works, which means you can no longer download movies and shows to your PC, Mac or laptop to watch offline. You're still able to stream live and on demand though, at no extra cost. To give you an even better offline viewing experience, there's new Sky Go Extra • Register up to four devices, including mobiles and selected tablets, and download to them all • Then watch offline and on the move – no more signal interruptions or buffering We're giving it to you free for 3 months. And if you love it as much as we think you will, it's easy to keep and great value at just £5 extra a month. If it's not for you, don't worry, we'll automatically remove it on
21 April. To enjoy Sky Go Extra, just update the Sky Go app or go to go.sky.com You'll see the new download feature there waiting for you.

I stand corected Martyh.

I wasn't aware that you could previously download content on the desktop top app as I've not used SkyGO in that environment. The downloading is definitely a new feature to mobile & tablet devices though.
