    Wait a minute, JC. Could you please first tell everyone what you actually want to watch?

    Sport? Films? On Demand only? Extra live TV channels? Lots of HD content? etc...

    Hope you don't mind me asking.

    Actually currently I don't watch a lot....balamory and night garden excluded. I've got bt sport, don't want to pay for sky sports. So maybe some history stuff, nature docs etc.
    I suppose my driver in this all is what more can I get for what I'm paying now. The reason I was thinking you view was mainly for the watch again on some channels without an iplayer like app.

    BT TV on fibre (YouView or BT Vision) provides these live channels -

    101 - BBC One HD England
    102 - BBC Two HD
    103 - ITV HD
    104 - Channel 4 HD
    407 - Watch
    408 - GOLD
    409 - Alibi
    417 - Comedy Central
    413 - TLC
    414 - Discovery
    415 - Animal Planet
    419 - Sy Fy
    420 - Universal
    421 - E!
    422 - FOX
    423 - Nat Geo
    424 - NatGeo WILD
    425 - MTV
    432 - History
    433 - Crime & Investigation
    513 - Eurosport 1
    514 - Eurosport 2

    All for £2.50 (on top of the base pack at £5). Plus the new BBC HD channels too (though not the kids ones on BT TV).

    Plus some limited On Demand content. So if you see a programme thats a must watch, it would be best to record it.

    Edit - and a YouView box has Freeview HD too. But a BT Vision box doesn't. They provide fibre only HD channels.

    Only a few channels are HD though, expect only the BBC bouquet of channels along with ITV1 and CH4.
