		Top Up TV has often been critisized for lack of channels and programmes ending in the middle due to the timeshare system.

	Top Up TV Anytime Information
		Top Up TV has now moved over to "Anytime", and the old basic service is no longer available to new customers.

	IDTV \| The UK's first independent Freeview receiver site
		I have to say at the outset that I had several problems getting this receiver — the first to be made with the Top Up TV service in mind — to work properly.
		That lot takes up most of the available room on the back of the receiver, which is slim (Height 5.2 cm x Width 25cm x Depth 13.8cm), and — if you like the fl plastic frontage, which I’m a little ambivalent about — has a sleek, uncluttered appearance.
		This time, the receiver locked up completely — so completely, in fact, that it couldn’t be switched off without physically removing the power cable from the back of the box.

	TrustedReviews - Thomson DTI 6300-16 - Top Up TV Anytime
		Sky, meanwhile, has its Anytime service, which combines TV you can download and watch on your PC with a jukebox service, which records a selection of TV overnight and stores it to watch anytime you like.
		Now, Top Up TV, which supplies premium channels via terrestrial digital, is getting in on the act, with a service, coincidentally also called Anytime (I hear the pitter patter of tiny lawyers' feet), and it's this that I'm reviewing here.
		What you get when you subscribe to the service is a set-top box — you guessed it, it's called the Top Up TV + box, just like Sky's — and this allows you to watch and record all the normal Freeview terrestrial digital channels.
