I don't get my money's worth out of the Sky basic package and am seriously considering Igloo for its channels.
Currently the box is free on a 12 month contract.
For those who have Igloo, do you think it gives a good picture and a reliable box?

The major disadvantage will be not getting the Sky magazine and will need to spend more time looking online.
Saying that, I sometimes wonder whether Sky bother even looking at their own magazine.

The channel pack (11 channels) are SD, TV One, Two and 3 are HD.  Now this maybe placebo effect but the SD channel pack channels do seem to be better on our TV than they were with Sky. Channels like Sommett, APNA etc are still terrible quality as they are on any device.
