We don't have cloud recording in the UK, it would have been preferable to, at least, change the Horizon software to deal with that reality. Not to come up with a workaround to fool the boxes that the local recordings are actually in the cloud. It would mean storing a little more information on the box harddrive but, at least, recordings would be available when broadband isn't.
One size doesn't fit all. The UK has been given all of the disadvantages of cloud recording but without the advantages.

VMO2 must be Liberty Global's largest market now it has sold its German operation, so hopefully the UK will have more say going forwards.
