Re: Any V6 users also tried SkyQ?
I have both.

SkyQ is best with late programme changes - although that too has been bad on BBC recently - BBC issue as they changed their update system.

V6 is best for series links as SkyQ seems often seems to forget them between series. V6 also does links across channels.

Interface are very different - but it is what you get used to as it is personal choice.

Netflix works well on V6 - but some films judder on SkyQ as it is unable to handle some frame rates.

There is still no HDR on SkyQ.

Additional boxes only need WiFi access on SkyQ - but then they just slave off the main box. So 6 recordings at once is maximum for house and all boxes share same recording folder.

Additional boxes on VM each need RF and network connections - but they can be set to either share their resources or keep them private.
