If it's any good, and especially considering the TiVo suggestions issues, well, who knows...
For me, losing the ability to record, the now tv entertainment side of things will live or die on the quality of the on demand offering and how well it compliments Netflix. We'll see.

That's my main issue with a PVR you have more flexibility , looking on the Now TV website it would appear a lot of the catch up has an expiry of 30 days , so as an example the service will contain the first four episodes when the 5th episode is added the first dissapears.
Many on here have stated that the service has incomplete boxsets which is wrong its purely only episodes via catch up , this is down to rights issues for series currently airing.
Another big complaint on the forums is around boxsets that have to short a viewing time and missing episodes , earlier on I checked the Now TV entertainment section and the 24 boxset was missing a few series but they've only just been added on Sky Series 1-8.
Sky seem to be listening when it comes to making boxsets available longer , The Wire Series 1-5 has an expiry date of Jan 2018 and 24 Series 1-8 in December 2015.
