Anyone got 'NTL On Demand' cable TV?

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to get cable broadband and wondering whether to get the cable TV and binning Sky.

The only problem is that I really like Sky Plus, but I see NTL now have this thing called 'NTL On Demand'. It's not a recorder like Sky+ but they make it sound like you can watch most programs any time you want (after the show is first aired of course).

 

If any of you guys have NTL:OD can you tell me - does it really work like that or do they really only have a fraction of shows available for later viewing?

Jake ive got NTL, and the on demand is quite good because you can watch the major shows i.e. BBC 1 you can watch eastenders when its finished and can catch up on upto a week back etc. You cant watch stuff from other channels i.e. sky one though, just channel 1-5 and BBC3 and some other tv shows which sometimes you have to pay for i.e. little britain series 1.

You can start/stop/fast forward/rewind movies you purchase through on demand also and they start whenever you like, and you get 24 hours to watch it.

 

Want any more info i can check for you :)

Cheers for that Maz.

 

It sounds a bit shit compared to Sky+ :(

I guess I'll just get their broadband then.

 

It isnt really as good if you watch more shows on sky channels really because you cant catch up on them whereas on sky + youve got the option to record etc.

Plus its just the major tv shows that you can watch.

 

Broadbands fine though ive had it for years and only ever had a problem with it once :) hth
