Sky On Demand / Catch Up...Waste of money.

PHARR

Rant:
Me and my OH have Sky's Variety Bundle which is their medium package.

Boasts over 80 Channels, Sky On Demand, Etc etc..

Now the problem which we always have is, say we missed a programme that was showed last night on a channel other than ITV,BBC,More4 .... When we search it to watch it again it shows its only available a week later, or 3-4 days later.

This happens a lot, another example is the MTV awards too.

I feel my time with Sky is coming towards the end. Anybody else have these sort of frustrations?

System

It is up to either the channel owner or the programme production company whether it will be available, when and for how long on catch-up not Sky.

I generally find Sky On demand to be an excellent service - I use it for about 40% of my Sky viewing. I think the catch-up is pretty good also.

I suppose we are just two sides to the same coin!

If your "solution" is to go to another Catch-Up provider, you'll find the same is true wherever you go.

Have you considered Sky+ (or similar) ? A PVR will allow you to record any programme for later viewing at your convenience.
