Moving home options - lots of complex questions!!
 
hi all.

seeing as im moving home, i thought now would be a good time to get a new
sky subs. what are my options? assume that if i get sky+ ill get at least
both movie channels.

is there any reason i would go for a sky+ box over a "sky+ and spare
digibox" (apart from the 10 quid mirror subs)? i see that you dont get a
subsidy on sky+ boxes atm, so surely i should use it on getting another box?

ok. so suppose i get the "1 quid install free box" thing. is there any
problem getting a sky+ box soon after that? whether its a replacement or by
relocating the existing box? if i get a replacement, is that breaking the
terms of the interactive discount (seeing as i wont be using the original
free box anymore)?

if the chances of my getting sky+ are good, should i get both sky+ and
normal now, rather than normal and sky+ a little later? whats the
disadvantage to doing it in two stages, apart from two visits by the
engineer?

now suppose i already have a spare digibox. is it possible for me to get a
mirror subscripition without buying a box from sky? how would i get them to
install the quad LNB?

switching cards. say i have two boxes (connected either to one or two
dishes) and two subscriptions (one with sky familiy on it (and maybe movies)
and one with ARY (an asian channel) as well as FTV etc). are the cards
interchangeable between the two boxes? fully or partly? if partly, what
would i see on the boxes that the cards are not paired with? can you pair a
card with more than one box?

ok and now a more simple question - whats the best free digibox to get atm?

cheers!
