I switched from Virgin TV to Sky a number of years ago. The reason for the switch was that I record a lot of live American sport which is generally broadcast from midnight GMT onwards. The recordings were regularly screwed up by Virgin doing software updates. This has not been a problem with Sky.

As I have Virgin broadband (which I want to keep), it would be cost effective for me to bundle Virgin TV with it - but no good if I can't rely on overnight recording.

I wondered if anyone has experienced problems with updates, or whether it appears Virgin have managed drag their technology in to line with Sky
