Maybe you should have stayed with Sky; they have a box with basic functionality which still manages to do that 
Ooops... I'm in trouble with the Sky guys now. Just kidding...  |
To be honest I can see the traditional cable/satellite boxes eventually giving way to people using numerous devices around the home , Comcast in the US are already trialling a cloud DVR with no local storage , the service will also have mobile apps that allow you to access your cloud recordings and live channels initially while in the home , these type of services can potentially work in any IP based device in the house so potentially games consoles , connected TVs and streaming devices.
In the USA TIVO already has these kind of capabilities with the TIVO Roamio , TIVO stream and TIVO Mini products likewise Sky's joint development of SAT>IP offers them the potential of similar functionality around the home.
