Virgin 360

I saw on my tv screen that I could upgrade to Virgin 360 free. I am an 81 year old pensioner  and a bit wary of new things. What does this actually involve and do I need to get a new remote control? ...

    TV360 is a completely different TV platform, a good comparison is mobile phones or tablets - where there's 2 different "operating systems" known as Android & Apple.

    If you're running a TiVo or V6, then you're running Android. TV360 is the equivalent of Apple. It could equally be the other way around, but the idea is the same. TiVo-software (on a TiVo or V6) is designed around the recording-world. TV360-boxes (which don't run TiVo-software) are designed around the world of apps & online viewing.

    If you're happy with your existing equipment, there is no reason to switch.
