What best box to buy for next seasons sport I have Vu Duo+ but wondered whats new

Quote from itrim

Word on the street is that Sky are switching off SD before new football season, maybe best to wait until after this happens

Unless Sly are stopping SD transmissions in favour of HD only I cant see it happening

Reason is those using older SD boxes are unable to be HW paired due to technology

Would also imagine this could be counter productive in terms of subs cancelling

Only my opinion btw

im sure one of the guys wil confirm if this is correct

It will take years to switch off SD sports channels ,they cant do so until all SD boxes have been replaced.

Sky is planning to further reduce the number of standard definition only set top boxes as part of an efficiency drive.

The move, outlined in the company's latest annual report, will enable Sky to move forward in utilsing newer broadcast technologies, including the more efficient DVB-S2 and MPEG4. A similar move has already been completed in Germany, where the pay TV's channels have moved to an all MPEG4 environment.

Details of how it wants to achieve this efficiency measure have not been disclosed.

Announcing its latest results, for the twelve months ending 30th June 2016, Sky reported a 20% increase in revenue; operating profit up 1% to £977 million. Across all of its businesses, Sky had 808,000 new customers. On average, UK customers spend £400 a year on Sky products.
