The Sky Box

The original digital box that Sky do is the simple digibox. This original digibox will allow you a selection of all the Sky programmes (except high definition programmes) and all the normal interactive services.

Sky +

The second digibox that Sky offer is the Sky+ digibox. The Sky+ digibox is a digital box that comes with a hard-drive so you can tape your regular Sky content with the touch of a button. The service is amazing and enables you to both record programs and set the receiver to record entire series with the touch of a button. The receiver provides the opportunity to tape two programs at once too so you will never have to choose to watch and tape what you like. The recording service is free providing you subscribe to a paid TV package, alternatively you will incur a £10 monthly charge. The digibox itself can be acquired free of charge via changing refer a colleague deals but otherwise is up to £99 depending on the available deals.

Sky High Definition Plus

The third Sky box available is the Sky HD Plus receiver. The Sky HD digital box is very the same as the Sky+ receiver but features component and H.D.M.I. sockets that can be used with Sky or 3rd party High Definition channels. The high definition digibox is by far the most impressive on the market and costs ten pounds a month for the HD channels (called the HD mix) but it is also by far the best picture and audio quality available if you have a High definition television.

Overall, you will need to consider what suits you, your TV habits and your money most.
