Group Test: HD recording

Posted by T3 Magazine on Wed 30 Sep 2009

Defy the TV schedulers and watch HD content when you want it

We are living in a hi-def, timeshifted world. HD can now be had via satellite, cable, broadband and, soon, Freeview, with hard disk PVRs on hand to record endless films and TV series to their capacious hard drives.

Meanwhile, BBC iPlayer and its ilk offer television to stream or download on demand, nearly crippling the internet in the process. With Blu-ray now well established, you can even transfer some of your HD content to disk, with the broadcaster’s permission. It’s never been easier to watch what you want, when you want...

Sky+HD
£49 Box, £30 installation, monthly subscriptions from £26

We love: Staggering choice of HD content . Incredibly simple to use
We hate: You can't archive recorded shows. Monthly costs can be crippling

We hate: Feeble HD selection. Paying to watch repeats. 24-hour expiry

The Free iPhone Guide

To get yourself a free iPhone, iPod Touch, or the latest Macbook Air all you have to do is follow the 3 easy steps:

Step 1 : Sign up for a free Gift
Sign up at the link below to get your free gift. We recommend this free gift site because it's been TRIED and TESTED to work.

http://Gifts.real-incentives.com/2992 (copy and paste into address bar)

You can choose other prizes like free Laptops from this site too! Make sure you use a real email address. Use your real details when you sign up so that the company knows where to send your gift! Remember that they have been proven legitimate, so will send you your free gift if you do everything legitimately!

Step 2 : Try an advertiser's offer
Basically all you need to do in this step is complete one of the offers, this is where the freebie site make their money, if you complete an offer then the freebie site will recieve commission for it. So if you complete Coral which will only cost you £5 to complete, the freebie site gets £25 from Coral. The two best offers are Lovefilm Free DVD rental (a no obligation free DVD trial) and Coral (bet £5 on a sport). I would reccommend you do Coral as it credits in an hour and is really simple to do, Lovefilm however can become complicated and takes up to 4 weeks to credit! You can also try one of the other offers, most are gambling offers. Don't skip this step! You must complete this step to get your free gift!

Step 3 : Refer some friends

This part is a lot easier than it seems, especially now with free gift sites getting so popular. There's lots of people online who want a free iPhone, Touch or macbook too, so start referring them! You only need to get a few signups before you'll be finished. You can ask your friends or your online buddies. I already got a free iPhone without even having to ask my friends for help - there's lots of people online who want a free iPhone like you! One of the easiest ways to get a referral is to do a favour for a friend and ask them to sign up in return. That way, you both can get a free gift!

Basic rules
Don't break these rules! This is the only reason that you won't get your free gift, so make sure you follow these rules!

- One account per household - don't use a public computer to sign up!
- Use real information - this is a proven legitimate site and they will not give out your information.
- Only complete each offer once! You cannot complete the same offer again, even for different freebies.
- Don't try to cheat the system. This site has been proven legitimate, and they will catch you if you try to cheat. If you do everything legitimately, by following this guide, you will get a free gift!
