I clearly am in a minority... I use EIT for Freeview and the former
epg.pvr.geek.nz feed for Sky. No real reason - it was just easier that way -
I set up Freeview first and haven't seen the need to change. I find the EIT
data perfectly good for normal use. I was under the impression that you
can't use EIT for Sky channels. Am I wrong?
