Interesting article. Nice broadband bandwidth solution for Sky, it's lovely to see them sharing something though.
Was “Cable Guy” a flop? I liked it!

they have set up a backdoor P2P network essentially without any explicit consent been sought and people thought Sony were bad

throw this in with them actively garnering ip addresses for other reasons?

Kontiki based P2P sharing eating your cap. Just like BBC iPlayer, similer DRM, similar tech, similar rip off of your bandwidth if you only watch the odd show.

IMO using the dish is a better idea.
