The only thing it has going for it is the ability to record 3 things at once.

We are definitely cancelling our TV contract once the 12 month of it are up.
Sounds to me like there's something wrong with your box!

VM would come out to fix or replace it free of charge if you contact Customer Services. Sky would charge you once your box was out of warranty.

I hope you consider all the angles before you make your leap over to the dark side! Sky are not renowned for their attitude towards customers and if you find you've made a mistake, just try cancelling your contract!

Good luck, and I hope you make the right decision for you.

Yes, we are, but I haven't seen anything definitive from VM yet on when we can expect it.

Although I am looking forward to getting the new model, I'm worried about losing all my recordings.
