Just found this by doing a blind search of domain names for a uni project and sumbled across this:
http://www.onthebox.com/partner/otb/

Rather cool site if you ask me. i have a program that offers a lot more, but as a tv guide i think its well worthy of a bookmark :)

What prog that Spud? DigiGuide? I used that for a while, but felt kinda stupid paying for something that I could get plenty of other places for free.

On the box is a prett neat little site. Nice and tidy, my neighbour uses it all the time.

yeah but i kind of agree, but the problem is you can't get it convienantly and as well presented anywhere.

For less than a tv guide, and as an application its far more preferable, dynamic and robust than any other solution I have seen.

I'm just a tad dissapointed with its workings, plugins and filters are rather unapproachable. A bit of rejiggling and the implementation of a sound XML strategy and it would be really neat.

However, I disagree, I don't think that the low fee for a year is that silly, given you get more value out of it.

I paid for EMM and DVD rebuilder too based on similar ideas. I don't own much software legitimately, but certain programs just appeal to me.

I guess we just have diferent opinions on this. But then again I am not a great fan of sifting information on a monitor, makes my eyes hurt.

LOL maybe I just need a monitor with a faster refresh than 75mhz, seems to give me less brain damage the higher the refresh rate.

DigiGuide has been going a while now, maybe a second opinion is warranted.
