  • whats Sky+?
  • Sky Plus, or Sky+ is a subscription personal video recorder (PVR) service for Sky Digital.

    Launched in October 2001, Sky+ allows the user to record, pause and instantly rewind live TV. The system performs these functions using an internal hard drive inside the Sky+ set top box.

    Critics have argued that it is too expensive and were unconvinced of the need for or reliability of the product. Indeed, take-up of the service was slow. However, as the price fell and awareness grew, the Sky+ roll-out accelerated. BSkyB spent upwards of £20 million advertising the new service. In 2004 Sky began to waive the service fee to customers who were subscribers of their premium sport and/or movie channels. Sky+ is also built into Sky HD digiboxes and PVR functionality comes free with a HD subscription.

    As with the Tivo system, a number of hackers have attempted to improve the basic Sky+ unit, primarily through the installation of larger hard drives; instruction manuals and toolkits to do this are freely traded on Ebay. However, installing a larger hard drive in the unit is not harder than in a normal PC. Some users report problems with very large (360GB+) hard disks in operation of the Amstrad software; the most commonly reported issue is slowing of menu browsing.

    Sky reported on 2nd January 2007 that over 2 million households now have a Sky+ box.

    Pandy short for Pand0ra, the keeper of the b0x.

    ...

  • ha ha, those definitions are awesome. All the more reason to stay as "Pandy." Besides, the urban dicitionary is kind of screwed up in their definitions. Remember their definitions of Ok Go? How is the Pandy doing these days?
