    Headlines - Sky rebrands its video-on-demand service, calls it Sky Player

    When your own video-on-demand service isn't proving popular, why not attempt to take advantage of BBC's iPlayer name?

    Having just tested it out, I think its awful that they even attempt to give it a similar name to iPlayer. iPlayer is a finished product and it actually works, 'Sky Player' seems struggle to load pages, certain links don't work, it is very hard to navigate/understand and there seems to be very little actually available.

    I dont think I have ever been impressed with anything that Sky offer in my entire life, they dont seem to have a clue!

    Do you still have to pay to watch some programs on sky Anytime (or whatever its called) even though you've paid for the package that covers these programs. I hated the fact if you wanted to watch a previous episode of something because you missed it by a week or two, you had to pay to view it...

    Sky is quickly falling in quality and respect.

    Iplayer and Bt Vision are certainly the way forward....

    Bye bye sky and your years or annoying over powering, hello cheap quality TV again..
