Sky+

I have been a sky customer for some time now, But because of the economic situation I now fond myself in I can now longer afford the monthly subscription for my sky +, I understand that to continue to use my sky+ box I have to pay sky £10 a month for the privilege of being able to record any channels, because I can only reserve basic free view channels I think this is a very restrictive approach for such I large company to adopt.
If I purchase a free view PVR type box I can record all the same cannels with out paying £10 a month, but as I say I cannot afford to pay out more money.
As from September next year the area that I live in goes to digital only so I need some type of free view to be able to receive TV.
I ask you sky to look into this very restrictive practice not only for me but other people as well that that have paid sky lots of money over the years

    No, the Freeview line-up is somewhat different. And if you meant "Freesat" the same comment applies.
