sky box office for sound and video when renting a movie? in high-def

 

[Anonymous]

dont know about playstation - sky and virgin about the same from my viewing, nothing in it

 

[Anonymous]

Apple TV should also get a mention for its HD movies

Sky doesn't have VOD as yet, and it will only be offering SD content initially

EDIT- Oh, Sky Box Office, missed that in the OP.

I wouldnt bother with PS3 as its all in 2 channel (Unless theyve gotten around to changing that now?)

a lot of the stuff released now on the PSN is in 5.1. however, doesn't help with the movies that were released before the change of heart from sony etc.

Cheers butch ~ I wndered if theyd gotten around to sorting it out or not. Has it made much difference to filesize?

[bigboss]

Isn't PS3 only 720p? I haven't seen Virgin, but Sky is pretty good.

 

[tvspecv]

unfortunately i am not in your area, but can offer a bit of advice.
firstly, you cannot get free view in Spain. Free view is the UK digital terrestrial service, a that is only available in the uk, via the aerial on your roof. the Spanish equivalent is TDT. check TDT. as to see if this available in your area.
you can get free sat from sky , or fre sat - which gets the main terrestrial channels via satellite - bbc, itc, c4, five. reception of these does depend on the size of the dish. some areas of Spain need a 2.4m dish to get bbc and itv, some just 1.2m. you may not get all channels 24/7 - bbc2 being notoriously difficult.
you can use your sky card in any other sky receiver and get the "6 mixes" channels. however, you will not be able to view the sports or movies channels as these are box specific - you can get receivers that does allow this, but you do not have hte eay to use sky guide, and are limited to just now and next programme information!

check the local press, but also canvass a few of your neighbours for recommendations and to look at their installations - even down to how the cables are routed from the dish to the house - for example some installers dont care how the cable runs look, or put the cables on the gound in areas that can flood easily.

thanks!!
