I have been drawing attention to the steadily reducing number of programmes on linear TV that were new and worth watching. There are some gems still in there, amongst many, many hours of dross on countless channels.

I make a bit of a local industry here in finding them, but not many people do. People simply cannot find them, and reduce to the inefficient selection method of channel hopping.

Pay TV is worst of all, in my opinion. Considering what they are charging, it's nothing short of scandalous that good programmes are so hard to find when you have to fork out for a subscription.

We were discussing the capacity of each V6 box being about 120 hours of HD recordings. That means if you record just seven series each of 16 programmes, that's your allowance practically used up. That is not good enough, although if you could bookmark with confidence that your programmes would remain on the system for at least two years, that would be a much better alternative.
