Sky Family bundle £36 rising to £38 from June
Sky Q Silver £54 rising to £56

The main selling points appear to be

VM XL TV - BT Sport channels included , HD included and TIVO

Sky Family Bundle - Sky Atlantic (with exclusive HBO and Showtime content) , HD included , Decent range of Boxsets.

Sky Q Silver - 1 multiroom box included with the ability to use two tablets also , UHD entertainment content soon , record 4 whilst watching a 5th , 2TB storage , certain recordings available to take on the move , Sky Go Extra included , free repairs.

Being I already have Multiroom I could be talking myself into Sky Q although the Sky premium channels are looking way to expensive. Sky Family bundle and multiroom would cost me £50 from June. The big gripe I have is the upfront costs.
I think it's worth seeing what the new Tivo box is like before jumping into any new contracts, TBH.
