    noob it is fab especially being able to pause live tv so you can go for a pee and not miss a minute of the footie/film/csi etc.

    I cant get sky easily here so i have NTL cable TV (which is utter crap) and use a linux box with MythTV on to do my recording/pausing live TV. cost was less than £300 for the whole pc and no monthly subscription. Sky+ can do somethings my media centre cant and vice versa (I have a load of films and music on my media centre). I am not against sky+ though I initially ordered it until i had problems getting it where I live.
