You will lose all recording from Sky Q as it is not transfeable.

I wonder why? It seems to be an oversite if they wish Sky Q people to move over. Great pity. I guess I will stay with Q . Thanks for your response. I had hoped to move to your exact setup. Although my wife had also hoped that there would be a smaller screen option than 43", but I guess you cant get all the gubbins into a smaller case. 43" is way to big for our home. 32" maybe....

Q and glass have zero similarities really.

@RevStreet The reason why is that Sky Q stores all recordings on a hard drive on your Q box. Sky Glass has no hard drrive in the TV so even if Sky could transfer recordings over there is nothing to transfer them to.
