Have just tried Sky by Broadband.
It has potential but I think the download speed is
very very slow despite being on a 2Mb broadband
connection.

Anyone else got an opinion?

Remember its a peer to peer system, and there arent that many folks using it at the moment.

I downloaded one the other day, haven't watched it yet, but I have a suspicion that the software is slowing my Pc a little, so it may well get removed. :)

I still feel there is some potential in this.

First major glitch however seems that it will not pass
through Norton Internet Security. NIS has to be turned
off for me to even get a log in.

I would then like to export the file to a proper dvd format
to see if this eliminates the time restriction. THe Sky plus
box has an output to dvd anyway so maybe the potential is
not as great as it could be.......

I have just downloaded a film and the quality is great, but, I would like to burn it to a DVD and my normal programs for converting the film will not load the file.
Can it be done?
