Re: Anytime+ opinions

Very good. Choose from hundreds of movies, series, sports, etc.
Download to hdd and can start viewing about 30 seconds after download starts.
not much hd content though

Re: Anytime+ opinions

It is free of charge. Initially you had to be with sky broadband to recieive anytime plus, but they are changing that so you can get it with any broadband provider.

The content is actually downloaded to your hd box, not streamed.
I get about 16 mbit/sec on my line and within about 30 seconds of downloading, I can start viewing it.
Hope this helps

Probably in Italy will not be free of charge.
They are speaking of something like 3/4 € per month.
In italy we pay too much for everything

Re: Anytime+ opinions

In Italy the Anytime+ service is starting test phase .
A question to UK users :

The old decoders ( the ones that didn't upgrade to the firmware that enables internet connection ) has been replaced free of charge by the provider ?

Thanks in advance

I received my sky hd receiver free when I signed up to sky hd.
Before that I got my sky+ receiver free, so I guess you should.

Re: Anytime+ opinions

I had it when it first started then had to change my hard drive and then could not get it, lot of hassle with customer service saying that I'm trying to use on different computer did not bother again.
