I currently have two STB's one digital and one analogue. Analogue is going away at the end of this month. Of course TCL want me to upgrade to the T-Box and a second digital decoder or possibly another T-box but so far I haven't heard the best things about T-Box plus that requires me to spend more money which I am not wanting to do.

So come March, no more analogue in the bedroom and instead willl resurrect a FreeviewHD STB I have and use that.  The kids will have to watch Disney/Cartoon etc in the family room now where I can control it! Plus I save $9/month which can go towards my broadband over usage each month :-(




Staying in Wellington. Check out my AirBnB in the Wellington CBD.  https://www.airbnb.co.nz/h/wellycbd  PM me and mention GZ to get a 15% discount and no AirBnB charges.

But can you really put a price on not having to "monitor" Cartoon Network and Disney? :D

Multiroom options do seem to be way overpriced for what they are. Sky is the same and don't get me started on paying extra for the HD version of certain channels you already pay through the nose for...
