Yes, I do, Den, but as I explained before, if Amazon was on VM, I could search for all the programmes I am likely to watch from whatever source, and bookmark them. I can only do that with VM's own system and Netflix at present.

Additionally, of course, I would like to see the V6 being hailed as a comprehensive streaming box for legal content, bringing more people into the VM embrace. This would bring more money into the company, leaving more funding available for additional content.

If I recall correctly, Sky wasn't really out of the wood until it had something like 5m subscribers.

Not at all, Den, I love the VM system, particularly their new V6 box (the old Tivos are knackered!).

My one and only bleat is the need for more comprehensive content.

I know, Chad, and that is a relevant point. However, they could do so much better if they had a mind to do so.
