Best Answer

Set top boxes are used to add additional television channels using a broadcast platform that is not directly supported by a television. Cable, digital terrestrial and satellite platforms all use set top boxes.

The "best" set top box is the one that operates on your chosen platform. In today's digital age, quality of output remains identical for almost any make or model. Features such as recording, live pause, recording scheduling and program guides may all vary and it is these that make the difference between poor and good set top boxes. As the user interface is rarely described in brochures, the only way to find out how they perform is to try them, if you are able to get to working demonstration models in stores.
