it is only a 1-off payment. leasing implies regular payments.and , you can
keep it, so long as you subscribe to sky. What you need to consider, is the
duration you intend to retain sky.
And, the quality / usability of this is awesome. i can fast forward the ad
breaks in just a few seconds.
So, while you fumble around, programming dual devices, i can schedule mywky
to record a program in less than a second.
My breakeven point for making mysky worthwhile is 2 years ownership. then,
if i cancel sky (can't see any reason why i would) after 2 years, i consider
this a good deal.
