Sky and Virgin main tv boxes still have the ability to record. The only ones that don't are their new streaming boxes they offer.

That's good Re: subtitles.
I suspect that any systems that still allow recordings will eventually adopt this system though.
This will mean that we will have gone full circle to the days when viewers had no way to avoid the adverts being played out (unless they pay) and to a situation where TV channels control what is watched, only this time they will be able to harvest and possibly sell our data.
Perhaps it will also be used to detect TV Licence evasion too??
