It looks like SKY think they do:
http://corporate.sky.com/media/press..._up_tv_service
"With the launch of 4oD, catch-up content from Channel 4’s portfolio of channels – including Channel 4, E4 and More 4 – will be available alongside hundreds of hours of great content from Sky 1, Sky Atlantic, Sky Living, Sky Arts, the BBC, ITV, Channel 5, the History Channel, National Geographic and others. Taken together, it means that Sky+ offers the most complete catch-up TV service in the UK, so customers never need to miss out on their favourite shows."
One day I'll make it in PR 
The release also confirms Film4 HD in September.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
In my opinion right now Sky offer the best and most comprehensive TV service, The best and most reliable on demand service, and the best and most complete truly unlimited broadband service all offered at the best price.
You can argue about it, but its the truth.

You are absolutely correct - it is the truth that it is your opinion....

Sorry but the resolution has failed due to indisputable proof of vote rigging.

Motion to dismiss...Denied!
Even those blinded by misplaced loyalty to a Mickey mouse provider could not deny that Sky offer the best alround service now.

It's the Sky users' thread Den; I don't think it's wrong to let them carry on in their state of delusion
Sky always excelled in TV channels compared to VM; only an idiot would deny that. But as for the provided set top box and broadband, then Sky lag behind VM IMHO.
Interestingly, now that VM have just added a bunch more HD channels, Sky's TV offering is only a little ahead of VM, compared to a few months ago when Sky offered a lot of channels that VM users wanted.
In the same way, Sky have recently caught up with VM with regard to on On Demand and catch up services.
I don't mean to be offensive, but the people who that say Sky is the best at everything, are just as stupid as the people who say that VM are the best at everything.
