I record everything in HD now, but frankly, there is no real difference in PQ for us, with our equipment, viewing Now TV. But even so, many Virgin viewers take it for Sky Atlantic and people have left Sky for Now TV. It provides choice. It may not be for you, but it adds to the quality of our viewing.
