No way is Sky worth the £600 a year when you can watch every game live on the Internet for free, watch every movie for free and use a PVR on your PC to record proogrammes...

I cancelled Sky a year ago and have never missed it.

That's confirmed my post then. Get it.

(Thought I should add, I don't have it! My folks do and it's fab. I have a PS3 and use it as my PVR, hardly watch football on tv and I download some movies and stream them to it! Sky+ IS simpler to use than a sheet of loo roll!!)

Me too, streaming footy on the Net has moved on and picture / reliability is much better than it was a short time ago.

I do pay for newsgroup access (£7 a month). Newsgroups are excellent for DVD quality films and can be downloaded in 4 minutes flat with my 20mb connection (not that I condone such an activity!). I'd advise anyone with a plasma / LCD TV to acquire a splitter (if needed) for your graphics card and run a cable to your TV. Very easy and very cheap to do.

That said, everyone I know who has Sky Plus swears by it. V+ is decent but not in the same league as Sky Plus.

What ISP are you with Vicar? Newsgroups used to be free. Not used them much recently, due to the advent of torrents!

Virgin, but I use the Usenet newsgroup as it is so comprehensive and you get to use 100% of your bandwidth unlike torrents. I download at 2.5 mb/s at all times via the newsgroup.
