Yes, it’s a shame we won’t be able to record in the future because it means your access to the programmes you have bookmarked are time limited. However, the future world will look a lot different in all sorts of ways in just about everything we do, and the pace of change will only increase.

“Life in the future will be sub-optimal, so we should make everything worse from this point just to acclimatise” is a hot take.
There’s no reason for Virgin to sabotage their products to below subscriber expectations to suit your agenda, OB. By your own flawed rationale Sky and Virgin should simply disable hard drive recording altogether, people should burn their old DVD recorders and VCRs in a bonfire of old technology.
