[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 13380, member: 175057"] Strangely enough, I think that the ability to re-sequence or edit the EPG would be an added selling point, not to me, but perhaps to the growing number of senior citizens. A Sky digibox does not perform control wise, like a traditional TV and that can be a big hurdle to the non technical minded person. The ability to make it behave in a more traditional manner, for example the ability to press "1" and get BBC1 would be an advantage. I'm not knocking Sky, I have it and would not be without it, but the point of my first post is that my mother just about refused to use it over a period of years, but is using the Freeview box after a couple of hours and this could be the key to mass takeup.
