Well - as much as I hate to say this I have come to the end of my contract and I find its time to more on. NOT because of the system - technically it still blows the lot out of the water but there are other things like I wanted HD and new content. Unfortuntly I found its not been updated for a while and as I dont get Virgin I went with Sky a while back.... I'm now switching to their BB system as they will be getting VOD soon too.

I also got a Freesat HDR box this week for the other half and I quite like it although the picture quality is defiantly not as good because we are going Freeview HD first I was hoping BT would get some thing out but I've had to make a call.

I will defintly be looking in through and I'm not saying I will never be back just just that I need some thing diffrent at the moment.

I am the same. I keep track of here for news on the service. I'm not a football fan and I ran out of content. My laptop has video out and I watch the iplayer HD for free.

agreed there Ayce

Vision is excellent but I find some things take a while to update. For some reason HD seems to have stalled. But the vision Staff have hinted at BBC HD in replay so. I think thats why theres a lack of HD.

They have got sony pictures onboard now. With terminator salvation comming in october / november time.

Hope freesat goes well for you. I'm unlucky as I can't get it.

Would have liked to have added it on to my setup alongside BT Vision

Can't remember the last time I used my Vision box. It now sits in a box in the loft. I have had a Freesat PVR for 6 months now and really like it. With my setup the picture quality is excellent on SD and HD, so there is little point in keeping Vision going. I have Sky at a very special rate (Ahem Ahem) anyway. Not sure about Sky BB, things are complicated. I would lose more than I would gain Work that one out.

Terran,

Sorry to see you go, matey.

I have been absent from this forum for a while but I have been watching ... I guess you will too.

Good luck.
