Oh, and you need to rethink TV too.
I have zero interest in 'live' TV.
If he's already got Sky+ then you're preaching to the converted.
/me wonders why he said that....
Ah, I think I was mainly answering Archeon and his subscription/TV...
The one thing the myth box at work will have to concede to a sky+ will be the encrypted channels like Sky Sports. Although I am looking at Dragon CAMs an the like.
I've been thinking about a Dragon CAM for *ages* too.
But no conceding here.... I record using PVR350 s-video capture so I already get encrypted Sky channels from the normal sky box. The problem is that the SD picture quality is *so* good - even on my 120" projector - that I can't really be bothered with the CAM

To be fair, I do get occasional artefacts - Strictly Come Dancing has so much fast movement, glitterballs and the rest that the picture changes radically every frame... makes capture/compression quite hard (even for the broadcasters).
In general though I can't fault it.
