    Buy and keep movies on your Sky+HD box

    How much did BBC save by ditching Sky encryption?

    Don't forget that you can only time-shift HD on a $ky box. You cannot record it. Your "copy" is restricted to that hard drive on that machine and only until they fail.

    France (66800) which is almost on the Spanish border. I was hoping to get away with a Gibertini 125 (125x130) with an Inverto Black Ultra and have once (lunchtime on 26/02/2014), while setting it up, managed to get BBC1 Oxford on an old Pace $ky SD box but never managed to repeat it. It looks...
