I wouldn't worry about it, I'm sure the majority of us appreciate the info you are providing.

So what did you want us to do? Just say yes and agree that you are probably be right, or create discussion on this discussion forum regarding the information we have seen.
The point is that this is a discussion forum, and you choose to only share information in DM's is pointless. Im part of one of the DM groups but the information shared is then relayed onto this public forum as soon as possible.
If you have something to share, then share it publicly and allow people to discuss it rather than shooting down everyone and then only sharing it with your buds in DM.

As you also mentioned with Netflix titles being included in the Tivo listings search will be a huge advantage.

I use a WDTV Live Streaming Media Player. This gives 5.1 and 1080p Super HD. It also has the advantage of being able to set the frame rate to 24fps, so I output at 1080p/24. This is good because most US Netflix content is 24fps, even the TV shows.
I also use my HTPC at times, but Windows 7 limits streaming to 720p and stereo sound. The Win 8 Netflix app can do 1080p, but not sure what the sound capabilities are on the Win 8 app.

If it came to a choice, surely it would be better to have the Sky Atlantic programmes on demand only. I simply would not watch the Sky Atlantic channel because it is stuffed full of adverts and just wastes my time. I would have to record all the programmes I wanted to see if that was the offer.

I'm not sure what sparked off your response, TO, but personally I would like to pick up the information that you acquire through your own knowledge of these things.
Don't let the detractors put you off

Yes looking back at the posts I can't see the culprit. Name him and I will take him out

I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I'd rather you continued to post and just ignore the responses you don't like.

But that wouldn't be an option.
The channel + On Demand is a viable option
The channel without On Demand is a viable option
But there is no way Sky would give Sky Atlantic On Demand on it's own, without the channel.

To be fair, anything you relay is likely to be questioned and ripped apart, even if it's totally correct. That's healthy on a discussion forum and probably should happen more often, considering some of the rubbish often stated by certain people on this type of thread. Don't let it bug you, you can always say "I told you it would happen" at some later date.

Contact the mods, DS isn't actively moderated, so being banned for something so trivial is unusual.

I doubt the CF team would ban you to be fair. DSpy has a bit of auto-moderation going on I believe which means you can get banned for the stupidest of things, atleast here people actually look at what's being said!(hence why CF is the best)
