Still, just be glad you're not on Telewest -- they only get the current day...
Then that's the wrong approach IMO. I used to have an old C&W analog cable box which would simply let you program channel changes for any channel and any date in the future.

The current software mixes and confuses the concept of an EPG with that of programming for recording. Why can't I still "manually" program my box for a date > 3 days ahead? I know what's on telly, even if the box doesn't.
