Hi Daran.
Good point and worth considering as I don't really need multi-room. Not
sure however about the accessibility and I think it's a little more
expensive. I've been a SKY customer for 12 months, so I could unsubscribe
and subscribe again in a few weeks time, with the Sky Plus. Certainly worth
more consideration eh?
Thanks.
Best wishes.
