i agree all people are asking for is the same as all other platforms have it isnt a lot to ask for, sky have had A PVR for years and freeview at least one year why are we being held back .i personally belive its simply that the NTL execs honestly belive that The VOD is better and that once we have that we wouldnt want a PVR . now if the roll out was a little quicker ( i apreciate that its a big job to enable it and not just a switch flick) i am sure some people would be happy and i do belive its a great idea, but i like a lot of people like to choose what i watch not what people think i want to (i do get the double standard there but you know what i mean). basiclly this VOD roll out as with the software upgrade feels like it is taking for ever for example it will be this time next year before the VOD roll out is complete and we still wont have any sign of a PVR while sky will have there HD out .which is in four months time and knowing how long sky have taken in setting that up (6 months and its already broadcasting) it kind of makes our little cable platform seem pathetic

i think what annoys me the most is i want NTL to be better than sky as somone needs to be

i think you are being unfair the people who work for NTL and post here do it for everyone and dont act like it's all for there mates we own them a debt of thanks to them. why would they only tell there mates and not all
