The current system has a Sky dish and we don't need any childrens channels, we do want all the usual BBC's, ITV's, C4, C5 etc and do like to watch a film on the weekend. Very important though, is that we do want to be able to…

Roku or Amazon Fire - or something else
I've searched reviews on this debate Roku or Amazon Fire? I found this comparison in another thread: I've used the Roku and fire TV. Both will work with wifi, as a test try streaming on your phone over wifi where your device will be. Roku is more of a pure media streamer, focused on legitimate streaming services, with a…

Leaving sky!

Their best offer was Sky entertainment, sports hd, broadband and evening and weekend calls for £63.50 which I thought was too much. Am I correct?

Now TV (or should that be No TV?)
