For me, when I rang up to completely cancel TV and just keep phone and BB a couple of years ago, it was cheaper for 6 months to keep one of the two Tivos that I had with TV M (pretty much Freeview channels) and then for the same price after that.

I guess they saw an advantage of giving me Tivo with TV M at no extra cost. Probably to keep their TV subscriber stats up and hoping I would be tempted to upgrade the TV package at some time in the future.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

With all these price rises it's no wonder people are turning to illegal ways of getting their TV channels! Many of my work colleagues think I'm mad for paying what I do for my TV. Don't get me I'm not advocating people go for these illegal ways,just saying it's not surprising.

I recorded the cricket Wednesday on MIX SD and it took up 9% of my 1TB Tivo. I would have expected a lot less than that but it was definitely the SD version. Lucky I am clearing down my recordings as previously I would have lost a lot. No idea why it used so much but I do know of some bugs with other programs using up far more space than they should do.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

Is the score being hidden on BT Sport a temporary glitch?

I try my hardest NOT to watch BT Sport. Sadly with Spurs in Europe, l have no choice but to watch it.
