Thinking about getting a Sky 2TB box off eBay

Hello

Contemplating the above as Sky want £149 to upgrade my standard HD box.

Additionally should I do so and I fill it with content from Sky Movies, what happens if I reduce my subscription to either Entertainment Plus HD and / or Sky Sports. Do I lose the content? My current package is Sky World, Unlimited Broadband and Weekend Calls.

Thanks...

A valid subscription to a channel at the time is required to view a channel live or recorded. So if you downgrade and remove Movies you will no longer be able to view either recordings or live Movies. It is a subscription to view a channel and not one to archive recordings.

Oh right, thanks.

So continuous subscription is required to view your what you archive. Didn't realise that...

OTOH, you can record from a channel to which you do not subscribe and then upgrade so you can view the recording.

That's a way of recording all of Sky Movie's limited output and then taking a one month subscription to view them all!
