My old sky box has started to mess around so needs to be replaced, would like the facility to store programs as well so my question is which is the better option for me, Sky+ or BT Vision, have read on both and I'm a bit confused.

Cheers Mark

Wrong section I think fella.


But to answer your question, BT Vision stores 80 hours of TV as apposed to Skys 40 hours; But with Sky you get alot more channels as BT Vision is only Freeview.. so basically its a glorified freeview box for a monthly contract.

If your willing to change providers, Virgin seems better value for money, and does 80 hours recording..

Find more info here http://allyours.virginmedia.com/html/dtv/vplus/ind...


EDIT* To add to things, if something goes wrong with your sky box, you have to pay to have it looked at where as virgin servicing is included.

Computers and Stuff. But I'd chuck it in the Pie and Piston as you'll get a greater viewing there and many many people have these services.
