Some good programmes, though mostly full of repeats!
Review of Sky + (Plus) by xxkitcatsxx

Advantages: Recording, rewinding, fast forwarding, pause
Disadvantages: Expensive, lots of repeats, connection issues, box freezes

Though sky can have some good programming, it is outweighed by the amount of repeated programmings over and over again. The only good point with this box is the ability to pause, record, rewind and fast forward. Though, to be honest, if you miss something ... Read review

America's TiVo hits British shores... again.
Review of Virgin Media TiVo Box by he6rt6gr6m

Advantages: Recording of three programmes, easy to use interface, now completely affordable.
Disadvantages: Only available to Virgin Media cable customers, poor physical design, no reminder function yet.

The TiVo brand, launched in 1999, is massive in North America's competitive DVR (Digital Video Recorder, also known as PVR - Personal Video Recorder) market, but is by far the number one choice for consumers in the States. So it was only logical that TiVo ... Read review

Seems like a lot of people's time is taken up with the "I'll take my business elsewhere" charade - I wonder why companies don't price their product correctly in the first place. by pgn0

Sorry for being a bit of a sheep here, but it would be good to get some extra information on other services and pricing ranges ... If you add these please drop me a line and I'll be happy to re-read and re-rate. by Gendibal
Sorry for the low rating, but more information would be more helpful. Who are the company, what do they offer, what are their prices like compared to other companies, how easy is it to get their service, is their customer service good and so on. If you update this let me know and I will re-rate it. by sn0zb0z
