Okay, the great problem with Sky, is that it offers such a large number of channels and choice of programming, across news, entertainment, factual and movies, that there is a risk of arguments as family members fall out over what to watch.

So if you find yourself in that situation, go for Sky Multiroom. It simply means that you can have more than one Sky box in your house, keeping family harmony in tact.

Right, so Dad wants to watch a footie match in the living room and mum and the kids want to watch the latest celebrity show. What do you do? You get Sky Multiroom for just £9.75 a month, although there are additional box costs and set-up charges.

You can also easily upgrade to Sky Plus, or Sky Plus HD when you get Multiroom. These extra features allow you to record pause and rewind your favourite shows with Sky+, or enjoy all the benefits of Sky+ in high definition with Sky+ HD.

great advantage with Sky Multiroom, is that it is an ideal way of getting ready for the digital switchover. The switchover, which sees a swap from analogue to digital technology, has now started in earnest and is scheduled to finish sometime in 2012. And once it rolls through particular parts of the country, analogue signals will no longer be transmitted, meaning that everything will be digital in the years to come. So as many houses have far more than one TV, this is a brilliant way of preparing for the changes.

Another big advantage with taking the Multiroom package is that customers can watch Sky TV online via Sky Player for free, rather than the normal monthly cost of £9.75. This is a great value deal, as an online user will be able to, depending on their package of course enjoy around 500 movies per month. Plus sports highlights and episodes from the top series on Sky, together with up to 14 live channels, from Sky Sports and Sky1 to MTV, Nickelodeon and The Disney Channel.

Sky Player also lets you catch up on programmes you've missed, or simply want to watch again.

So, for those with a house full of people eager to watch their favourite TV programmes and movies, why delay, get them a multiroom package now and stop the rows. And, also get the great ability of being able to enjoy Sky online.
