Re: unbiased answer needed NTL vs SKY PQ

Given a reasonable connexion, there shouldn't really be much difference between Sky and ntl on a 32" TV on the main channels.

If anyone has consistent trouble with either, then there is probably a problem with the signal.

Well according to the DTV courses I went on the DTV standards for data compression are identical for Cable DTV, SAT DTV and Terrestrial DTV. Under normal conditions the picture quality should be identical between the 3 sources as they all have to adhere to the standards set down when the DTv licences where set-up.
Having said that, the level of compression isn't set by the licences. There are enough channels who broadcast with a high level of compression, and who look bad.
