As for ‘recording from IP streamed channels’, are you sure about that? Some systems may describe ‘recording from the cloud’, but it is effectively drawing your requested programme from on demand.

Although you may think that BBC programmes are ‘recordable’ from IP streamed channels, you are effectively accessing those programmes from the BBCi-Player.

"Watch your favourite free-to-air content without the need for an aerial"

"Record up to 600 hours of TV on the 1TB hard drive, across up to four channels at once when watching in aerial mode and up to two channels at once when watching in internet mode"

Sounds convincing to me.
