Still no ability to stream between boxes though; which seems to me to be the obvious thing missing from all UK multiroom offerings.

Slightly off topic, but thought it may interest people who didn't know - probably not the OP though as they're after a Sky+ system.

Sky have launched a new box recently - with HD, but no PVR functionality: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcasting/news/a309271/sky-launches-new-multiroom-hd-box.html


Interesting. Presumably this now replaces the old SD Digibox, which was only used for multiroom installs of late?

Virgin are now giving out their V HD box (sans record) as their default install. Might be a reply to this.

Virgin have been doing that for a year, they just kept it quiet initially.

Although they now want you to pay a nonsense charge of £49.95 for 'activation' of HD channels.

Well at least they don't charge extra each month for said HD channels.
