Hi guys, As I am getting less and less for my money with Sky I am thinking of ditching them. I have Sky+ and what I do like is the ability to record programs, esp on a series link.

Hi guys,
As I am getting less and less for my money with Sky I am thinking of ditching them. I have Sky+ and what I do like is the ability to record programs, esp on a series link. I also like the pause/play option when watching live TV and the ability to rewind up to 60mins of a live program. If I was to ditch Sky and use my TV's tuner to recieve free to air channels or even use the Sky+ box to get the free channels is there anything I could add to my setup so I would still be able to record programs and pause/play live tv.

PS: I am not sure if I get the Free to Air or Free to View tv channels free. What I do know is I get all the usuals, BBC 1/2/3 ect, UTV, RTE, Dave ect, all free, in fact nearly everything I get with Sky except the Movies and Sports channels. my TV is a Pioneer Kuro 500A which has an inbuilt turner. I have to use a small digital indoor aerial to get the Irish channels, esp RTE 2 HD.
