Hi,
I only got my Skybox F5 two weeks ago after having a Sky+ HD box for years.
I'm finding the transition difficult but can't justify paying Sky's high prices for Sports and Movies.
Yesterday the guy who sold me the F5 posted a video of his newly installed Cloud Ibox2 which has the Sky 7 day EPG, On Demand and Online movies.
Would this be a good box to change to?
I have read on another forum that they have stopped support for that box and a number have been bricked with a recent upgrade.
Ideally i would want a twin tuner so i can record as when i had Sky+ i recorded everything and watched when it suited me.
Other than that, having the standard Sky layout would help the rest of my family as they are finding it hard to get used to the EPG on the F5.
If i can't find an alternative box, i think i may as well just resubscribe to Sky for one of the basic packages and then use the F5 for Sports and Movies, which is still a lot cheaper than Sky but not totally ideal.
Any advice much appreciated.
