The edit in the earlier hours was done by myself but the rest of the post which was about you an your friends being proved wrong an starting arguements for no reason has been removed by someone else.
But thank you for proving my point about youself once again. ignorance really seem to be your thing. maybe when you grow up youll learn some manners.

It was edited by me - and if attitudes don't change in this thread then I'll be removing posting rights without notice.

I advise you all to take heed of this final warning.

Sky by Broadband works and may suit some people but the downloads are relatively slow and WMP player may cause problems depending on the exact installation of the software.HTH.Good luck!
Which is great if you know what you're doing with Windows, or if you've read threads like this one, on sites like this one.

Otherwise, you're stuffed.

I'd rather stick with watching stuff on the TV than use a download app which installs crappy spyware (something which the forthcoming BBC player should avoid, I hope).
