I don’t do any, I have freesat and Netflix.
I’m with @RichardL here.
I’d been toying with the idea of dumping Sky for months and the Coronavirus situation helped tip me over the edge. The transition has been nothing like as hard as I thought it was going to be. I wish I’d done it ages ago.
Every telly in the house has a Roku stuffed in the back, giving access to iPlayer (and all UK channel equivalents), Netflix, Prime, Disney+, YouTube, NOWTV and loads more besides.
I got a NOW TV deal last Black Friday that we were just using for movies, but it has all the Sky box sets on there as well and Sky Sports passes should football ever happen again.
I did get a cheap Manhattan Freesat box, so when we’re allowed out again and my mum has to come and babysit, she has a way to sit and flick through channels (she wouldn’t have a clue what to do it I handed her a Roku remote!), but I’ve rarely used it. A little warning if you’re thinking of doing similar - some Freesat boxes aren’t compatible with Sky Q dishes - I had to get the LNB replaced on the dish, which was an unexpected cost (but only a little over a month’s subscription cost that I was paying to Sky!).
But - back on topic - in my experience, I’d take Sky over Virgin every day of the week.
