    Virgin or Sky???

    At the moment we have got a mish-mash of providers; BT for the phone & internet and Sky for TV. I want to 'streamline' it all and have been looking at transferring the full lot to Virgin, mostly because you don't have to have a phone-line. We have the top package on Sky without the HD and don't...

    How to transmit stuff through my SKY+ box

    I know what I mean and hope that I can explain it. At home we have 4 TV points plus the one connected to the SKY box. They all show whatever the box is tuned into and I'm happy enough with that. However, I'd like to be able to put DVD or You Tube/Iplayer via my laptop through the SKY box...
