    So after 8 years with sky I'm getting rid. The reason I prob stayed with them is the ease of use and the missus with mtv however have got a nowtv so that's that taken care of. Looking for advice on box. Freesat don't need soarview box have it built into my tv.
    Box requirements. Must be user friendly with the ability of being able to record either via internal or external drive. I know Humax you can remote record any other boxes that do this? Would really appreciate any box advice as possible. Want to make the right choice first time and start saving money.

    Thanks

    It might be worth keeping an eye on the following thread from Digital Spy:

    Some UK ex-subscription users are reporting that a lapsed-sub Sky box is still allowing recordings, so you may be able to just cancel the sub and carry on using the same equipment you currently use.

    Even if recording doesn't work, you will still be able to carry on using your existing set-up as a Free To Air system until you make your decision on purchasing another recordable box.
