Seems fairly quiet to me when I am at my mates house and works in exactly the same way as a Sky + box works

I personally have a Sky plus  box and am considering upgrading to a HD box but am just waiting until after Christmas for the package price to fall .

I got Sky years and years ago but there are so many more choices these days as you are finding to your frustration.

If I didn't have to I wouldn't commit myself to a contract with anyone as unless you are into Sports or the latest Films the Freeview channels and the main channels are the ones that are mostly watched in this household

As for the Discovery Channel I think you will need Sky to get that and basic Sky packages start at around ?19 a month

Go for it Growler!  happy088

Something will be happening iminintly iminnintley iminintaly very soon, just a case of deciding which one to go for.

MD. Is this one you recommend quiet? rubschin:
Why the hell do they have fans anyway? confused:
If you read the comments it says that the firmware upgrade makes the fan quiet...

You can't get Discovery on Freeview tho...  noooo:

Although didn't Uncle have some add-on for getting extra channels...?  rubschin:

We have the Sky Family Pack which gives Discovery, National Geo etc. but it costs us twenty-two Pounds Snotters per month...

You need an HD box to receive HD (High Definition) channels... Broadcast with 1080 horizontal lines instead of 625 on your normal telly...  whistle:

However, you need a HD capable telly to utilise it...

Oh I've heard about HD telly like, but didn't know you needed yet ANOTHER bloody box to werk them like.
It'll no doubt become compulsary to have one soon. ::)

What am I going to do with this rather expensive panasonic freeview,video player/recorder, DVD player recorder then in 2 weeks time, and WHY didn't the bastards that sold it to me three years ago tell me that it was going to be virtually useless from Dec.'09, ey, WHY?!

Don't bother answering that last bit, as I now know the answer, you thieving con merchant bunch of evil bastards. Explode:

 evil:

NO! Don't do permission.

Off you go then...  whistle:

You know if you go to a store they'll have a different model... then they'll spin you some line about the one you really want being too large/small/noisy/quiet, etc. and you'll be confused because your personal advisers Miss D and myself aren't available then you'll prolly punch the guy in the shop and end up in prison like...

Prolly...  redface:
