Anybody got this? Thinking of changing from Sky because it is pricey and the support is shite.

How does it compare to Sky+?

I'm still with Virgin me.

Be interested to know how it goes, Nick, but I am happy where I am. Have landline, 2 mobiles, broadband and full TV package with them, so I am on a bit of a Virgin overload at the moment.

I have BT with a youview box. I don't have any issues with it other than the choice of channels, I pay on average £64 per month and that is for fibre optic unlimited broadband, phoneline with free evening and weekend calls and of course the TV, has a reasonable library of films and box sets included in package and also pay per view tend to be available as soon as released on DVD

Have you thought about getting an Android TV Box? I'm looking into getting one and they seem fairly good. Costs about £100 for a decent set up, then just your broadband costs every month.

Wouldn't even know where to start with that. How does it work?

It allows you to stream from the internet straight to your tv. It effectively turns your TV into a tablet.

You can pay for extra's like HD Sports channel, Yearly price about £40.

From what I have read they're a great addition and a must have.

This is the box I've been recommended (suitable for idiots with no tech know how).
