It still sounds like it can't compete with Sky Q at all in terms of features. ie the WiFi boosting of all boxes and built in powerline. Soon to be enabled voice searching as well. Also its still only 1Tb which says to me 4K will be limited to On demand and Netflix/YouTube.
Personally, that would suit me fine (we don't have TV in any commercial premises as VM discontinued this as they couldn't make any money on it due to the amount that Sky charges).

Voice searching would be very useful for the sight impaired.
