Advantages: Saves you loads of time
Disadvantages: you have to pay for it initially
My question is, in this techno advanced world where we seem to have more to do and even less time on our hands who can live without a sky plus box? Certainly no parent I know! You may think you can but that's just because you haven't got one - trust me!
Basically you can record any channel you have access to at any time as long as you only record 2 things maximum at the same time that are on different channels. If you do this however be aware you will not be able to view another channel but you can view something you have previously recorded. This is stored in your planner, this is basically your hard drive which contains all your recordings you can manage them out of here and protect them from deletion and watch at your leisure.
My typical day is jam packed up until 8 ish so at this point sky plus comes into its own. I watch everything then from previous days etc and if one of the kids wakes up, no problem stick on pause! I also find now that I hate sitting through adverts and actually get a bit annoyed when I have to watch something in real time. The x factors on and there about to answer the winner and I'm sitting there thinking if I'd sky plus'd this I could have whizzed all this stalling on. It really comes into it's own when they do results shows , when they pad out an hour of pointless telly just to tell you whose been voted out , not with sky plus 10 mins tops- Genius!
Another handy feature is that if something is on Anytime T.V. you can go in and record it and it comes up straight away in your planner, handy if something is last chance and you aren't going to get a chance to watch it. They are constantly advertising deals for new customers so give it ago, it'll actually save you time, and you could fit a few more reviews in!

Summary: Brilliant buy every house should have one

- 18/08/09 Certainly a useful and easy-to-use system. However, we have had a couple of sky+ boxes crash - expensive to fix unless you're expensively insured. |
