Have you tried Sky By Broadband?

[blacknight]

Sky has been advertising this service heavily over the last couple of months.

Has anyone used it?

No but Im about to give it a shot now. Have you tried it yourself?

[blacknight]

I'll probably give it a shot as well... only problem is that it seems to be 100% windows based

It looks like it uses a peer - peer technology (Kontiki) to download the movies to your PC (which you then upload to other users as long as the movies on your PC) and then you're licensed to watch it for 30 days.

Thanks for the help.
It seems what I needed was "broadbandbySky" and not "SkybyBroadband" Clever wording. ! Thanks anyway.
