Easy to use, Shuffles videos, 80GB of internal storage, Integrated IR transmitter, Great remote control
Very basic features and interface compared to other media players, Have to purchase additional plug-ins to access many features included on other devices, DVR functionality only with additional hardware, Not high definition
While Archos has stepped away from manufacturing and developing the Archos TV+, there is a market for them - even refurbished models. If the Archos TV+ meets your needs, this is a great product to bring into your home theater. Similar products are ava...

Interface is confusing at times, and there is little customization, Keyboard is hard to type with and the mouse is slow, Very poor video quality and websites are almost unreadable, Additional costs for premium content

Built-in DVR, Good streaming ability, Can sync recordings to Archos media players

The TV+ has a lot of potential and is certainly stacked with features. But it has too many shortcomings to be worth spending £250 on. It's not a particularly good media streamer. It's not an elegant alternative to Sky Plus or a decent twin-tuner DVR. Its ...
