Hi there,
I am a total noob at this type of thing so I'll start by apologising if some of these questions seem stupid.
My parents are paying a fortune for their current sky package and just realised that the price is either going up or has already gone up recently.
I was thinking of purchasing a zgemma h.2s box for them to be able to watch the same channels at a lower price. At least I think that is the right box that I need to replace their sky+ setup, however I have a few questions that I hope to get answered before I spend the money.
1. Is zgemma's uk site the best place to buy these? The reason I ask is because I notice that it says on their website something along the lines of their products are FTA only, so I'm scared of buying in case I cannot edit the line/gift. I also see some listed on auction sites for over £100 that include 12 months gift, is this dodgy where the gifts will stop working & the seller disappear off the face of the earth after 2 weeks?
2. I have an understanding of FTP so I should be able to do the line no problem, however should I avoid auction sites when purchasing my lines/gifts in case they do not last the full 12 months as stated?
3. If they were to record on a zgemma h.2s box do I need to buy a USB pen, external HDD or a microSD card? Will all of these work? Is one option better than the other?
4. Is there anything else that I should consider before purchasing?
Many thanks for reading & for any advice that you can give me.
