They did similar ages ago with Setanta sports when I had it which was good for free but the channels were lacking compared to Sky with the box lagging and crashing for more than standard Sky or Sky+ ones do. The remote was also pathetic, reacting like super-glued skittles but not sure on the later ones.

Sky like BT in many way have too much of a head start so hold all the keys to all the doors. Shame it would be nice to see proper competition and choice but like Ebay you always end up being Sky's bitch in the end paying up.

If you could get sky sports in HD then it would be much better, but the movie choices on demand piss all over sky
