New potential customer

Hi, I'm thinking to get Sky TV Stream, I know it doesn't record, because I often watch sports events no live, can I pick up passed events and watch it anytime?

In general how does this works, please?

thanks!

It does work. Or rather it can work.

It requires careful addition to your playlist from the correct channel on the EPG. There's no guarantee it will update with any over-runs though so it's not fool-proof. There are some people who will tell you it works flawlessly for them, and others who have a nightmare with it. There's also no guarantee that certain sporting events will be available to watch in their entirety at a later date, sometimes only highlights may be available.

When it works it's great... when it doesn't... it's not.

okay I understand, it's not a great service, I'm with Virgin for very long now and the tv box works very good without issues, but because they mess it up when I moved home I was temp to change to Sky for the TV, but I don't want regret it later. What I don't understand is why Sky doesn't adapt to the level of service that Virgin has considering also that they produce the TV packages?!
