I agree it also limits the need for expensive hardware as advanced search , viewing the planner , remote record , never miss can all be integrated and used on companion devices.

This is going to be an excellent year for Sky customers

Re: General Sky TV Discussion
Sky 3D audience growing, new channel hinted
Quote:
Sky is looking at the possibility of splitting its Sky 3D channel in two, creating a dedicated Sky Sports 3D channel in the process.
Both Simon Rexworthy, controller of acquisitions at Sky Movies, and Ian Lewis, director of Sky Movies, separately confirmed the move to Pocket-lint at a recent behind-closed-doors event in London.
Although neither man would say when such a channel might be created, both hinted that Sky 3D could be split within the next 12 months.
The reasoning behind the possible decision - which is far from certain to happen - is to allow Sky to show the growing amount of 3D content to which it now has access.
