Move to Sky Stream from Sky Q

I am currently on Sky Q and my contract finishes in the next few months. I am thinking about moving to Sky stream and have a couple of questions. I currently have my main box attached to the router via a cable and a second box in another room connected wirelessly. Would this be ok on stream and does this have any negatives? My other question concerns the playlist. If I added something to my playlist how long would this be accessable?

You can keep the same setup you have, one thing to note is that the pucks do need a strong & stable wifi connection.

 

Playlisted items availability will depend on the respective broadcasters rights.

 

Sky have stated their own on demand material is available up to 1 year(however no one has yet tested this).

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.
