I wish Sky would stop ****ing around with the software on the box's.

My Sky+ was working perfectly well until they played with the software a few months back, then it went really slow, slow to change channels and go through the menu's and slow reacting to the remote control etc etc

I had the box swapped out recently and it was great as it was running the older software for a while and it worked again, not running slow and everything was nice, then it updated the software and went slow again, and now since the have changed the EPG it has got even worse, and when i ring Sky all they do is book a service call and send someone out, which i promptly cancel as there is nothing wrong with the box.

And as for changing the way to get into the recorded programmes on the Sky+, why did they have to mess with it, it worked fine as it was before, what they have done has made no real difference to the system what so ever so why bother messing with it. And if what someone mentioned is true about them renumbering hte channels then i will be really ****ed off and that will annoy the hell outta me. I know what channels numbers are it works as it is so why mess wiht it eh.
