General Comments
I have had Top Up TV Anytime for almost a year now, and am 90% pleased with the service. I pre-ordered my box, so I was subjected to the worst of the problems the box has suffered through it's software development. A year on and the box is almost flawless. All of the initial problems are now gone, and the software team is devoted to making this box the best on the market by introducing new features and actively participating in discussions with customers on public forums.
The Top Up TV Anytime service has evolved several times during the period I have been subscribed, Content from The Disney Channel, British Eurosport, as well as two free channels 'The Info Channel' and 'Showcase' has been added. Letters from Top Up TV have indicated a further two content providers should be added later this year.
The service has completely changed my viewing habits over the year, I find I am watching hardly any 'live' TV, but watching the On demand content along with my series linked recordings, instead.
I am very happy with this service and would be lost without this new box, it really needs to be tried to be understood.
It gets a thumbs up from me.
