Fantastic idea, very poorly executed.
Not easy to navigate and prone to falling over at the most infuriating time - final day of the Ryder Cup, Sky's flagship event, and a service failure that meant almost the entire day was missed. The response from Sky amounts to an apology and assurance that they've identified the fault. Compensation for me missing the sporting highlight of the year when I pay £60 per month in subscriptions? Not likley, they don't believe they have to as they have the monopoly on the sports. Customer service is a joke. System is often unreliable and slow. Impossible to watch sport and listen to alternative commentary as the pictures lag behind the live event and get further and further behind as the small freezes mount up. If you want to watch a Sky1 show on your pc you'll be ok but do yourself a favour and just buy a HD recorder so you can catch it on your TV later.
