Sky+ is it worth it??

Sold my Tivo a week or so ago.

I'm thinking of ebaying mine. Probably a BuyItNow @ £199
with £15
insured P&P.

Does that sound fair?

How did you do yours? How much did you sell it for?

I sold it to a private buyer who contacted me after seeing a
post by me on this group. I sold it for £160 inc p+p, so I
actually made £150. You should be able to get more on Ebay
if you can be bothered.

Anywhere between £150-£200 is fair for a non lifetime Tivo.

Thanks.

I've really just got to work out how to package it. I don't have the
original box anymore.

The only thing [Sky+ is ] lacking in my opinion is a decent search
facility for programmes. With the Tivo I could just enter the first
few letters of the show and then find out when, where and what
channels it's on. With Sky+ you have to know when a programme is on
to record it.

Not forgetting that with Tivo's Wish Lists, you can also type in some
keywords, and then any programmes matching these keywords (at any time
in the future) will automatically be recorded, even if they are not in
the current schedules.

This is very useful when you see (say) an advert for a BBC programme
which is "Coming Soon". You just create a Title Wish List, and you
won't miss it when they finally get round to scheduling it.

Or you can search by letter.

But only for about a day or two, which isnt worth a bucket of warm
spit.

And don't you also have to wade through a list of programmes for
*every* single channel, even those to which you do not subscribe?
