Radio recording is a huge deal breaker for me. I realise I will lose QuickView, but at least i'd be able to keep this.
I think you are a bit starry-eyed about Sky. I hope you look into what it offers very carefully before you jump ship.

Sky Q is guaranteed to be functioning until 2029-30, when the transponder contracts run out, and Virgin isn't doing anything to compel its customers to change to the 360 at this stage. So Virgin and Sky are in roughly the same position.

I'd sit tight if I were you, but of course, it's your decision. Be careful what you wish for and prepare for a streaming only future.
