I'm not speaking for everyone, but I switched to Virgin Media in January of last year and I have genuinely recorded about 4 things since then.I use my Sky+HD PVR to download from catch-up services. So I would certainly miss it. I don't think they're going anywhere anytime soon.
The Sky Glass/Stream "recording" functionality does seem pretty good, the personalised playlist feature would probably do me well in the long run.
Often I will see a promo, a decent review or a comment on here, so search and download it at the time for later viewing. It's then already there when I decide I want to sit and watch TV. As my brain is now mainly sawdust, I would have little chance of remembering something weeks later that I wanted to stream.
