And on the other hand…
Despite some people clearly preferring TiVo, the data suggests 360 is objectively a better TV service. Customers with Virgin TV 360 consistently score higher in satsifction scores than both V6 and TiVo. They also remove their TV service at a lower rate.
In terms of improvements
- 360 has a better and wider range of content available and integrated into the platform. Sky Sports+ is the first example, its not going to be available on V6 for some time, and wont be available on TiVo.
- In addition Disney+, Apple TV+, Paramount+ and any upcoming app launches will be only available on 360 and integrated into the platform so you're going to find what you want to watch sooner.
- This continues with the superior homepage on 360, with continue watching rail, puchased content/rentals, most used apps, recent recordings and Watchlist available with just a few taps down the menu
- Of course the quickest way to get around the service is Voice Control; use it to open apps, search for what you want or just say "fast forward three minutes" to sip through the adverts!
- It looks miles better, without the rows of text you see on V6.
- Startover is a great feature where you can start playing from the beginning of a live show, even if you missed the start.
- Profiles is a great way to make the experience your own, you can even set up your own EPG with just the channels you want!
- Finally HD override will always default to the best quality available in your package so you dont need to remember additonal channel numbers
All of this adds up to a much better viewing experience. I think it's important to get a balanced view before you switch, you will lose your recordings so you want to make sure it's worth it!
