On their debut album From The Sky, Baths Blackbud go where many other bands have gone ... more
before them, mining a classic guitar-pop sound that brings to mind the rocky peaks and guitar histrionics of Muse, Jeff Buckley, and even Eric Clapton and Cream. A fairly safe musical crib-sheet for men barely out of their teens, its true. But for a sizable silent demographic of music buyers waiting on the next Coldplay or Keane LP, there should be much to appreciate here. The riffy, faintly Hendrix opener "Barefoot Dancing" is an early highlight, one that showcases Blackbuds ability to ebb and flow between building rock peaks and moments of chilled-out guitar ambience, while the mellow, bluesy "Goodbye Song (Cold Haroundan)" nails the lazy Sunday morning vibe with cool skill. Frontman Joe Taylors voice is strong, if not enormously individual--a fact that can perhaps be traced back to Blackbuds history as a covers band touring the venues and back rooms of the West Country. Its certainly left them sounding proficient, however, meaning From The Sky should appear to young indie-rockers and a older generation that still pines for the songs of the 60s. --Louis Pattison

Advantages: Pause, rewind and record live TV! Disadvantages: None, it's great!
Sky+ is amazing and I don't think I could ever live without it!
It is basically like a video recorder without the video. You can set any program to record at the touch of a button just like you would set the reminder function of a standard sky box. You can also use the series link button which will record every future episode.
The remote is very similar to the standard sky remote and you have exactly the same features plus a few extra. As well as the standard buttons on the remote you have play, fast forward, rewind, pause, stop and record buttons.
When you rewind or fast forward you have a choice of 4 speeds 2x (twice as fast as play), 4x (4 times as fast, etc), 12x or 30x. You simply press once for 2x twice for 4x etc, then the play button when you get to what you are looking for. If you are fast forwarding at 30x and want ...

Advantages: Good service, low downtime Disadvantages: No uses of the USBs, takes a while to begin.
that allow you to, pause, play, rewind and fast forward. Which is extremely useful, when you need to go away and make a cuppa, or want to re-watch an hilarious part in a movie, that you just can't help but see again! Thats what I love about Sky+ That tells it apart mainly from the rest.
2. Built-in recording to hardrive feature.
Just like PVR Freeview Boxes, you can do the same with Sky+ Just press the pig red R Button and start recording the selected programme, for example if I was going out for the day and wanted to record East Enders, Coronation street, and Waterloo Road. Then I could do that very simply, as long as know more than 2 will need to be recorded at the same time.
Ok thats about the Sky+ features some some other notes.
Some of my friends and family say that they get bad broadcast sometimes due to planes, and weather ...

Advantages: Series link Disadvantages: Not enough memory
series is highlighted, this is definitely one of the best features of sky+ as it means you will never miss an episode. It enables you to lock programmes into the planner to prevent them from being deleted & has excellent parents protection systems as it requires a pin code to watch any movies of a 12 rating or higher. ...
