Default Sky +

Hi there,

I read somewhere that Sky+ was to allow recording of 2 programs
simultaneously - is this true and when will it come into effect.

Secondly, I notice that Sky Premier Widescreen is longer available does
anyone know what has happened to it?

Thanks

Mark Jeffery

It was withdrawn when all the other film channels went WS - about six
months ago.

All of the Sky Movie channels now show 16:9 widescreen films, where Sky have
such transfers, so the need for a separate widescreen channel has gone. The
move to widescreen on the main channels happened about 6 months ago, around
the same time that Sky One and Sky One Mix also started showing 16:9
material (or a little before)
