Thanks for the thoughts.
What I basically want to know is this: yonks ago, I bought the Humax lifetime deal... I want to know if legally that should continue to be honoured or not.
ie. death of their company == lifetime deal death.
The company that you contracted with is effectively dead in the water. Subscription holders are unsecured creditors and reading the report of the administrators they will get nothing back.
I had best part of 4-year subscription to go ... but as they say water under the bridge.
I think it is, given the way I use my PVRs, good value paying just under $8 a month to the new company (which is negotiating to by the assets of the old company, but will not be taking on the liabilities .... the nature of limited liability). I also lost life-time subscription for my SKIPPA. Not complaining, just stating the facts (as I understand them to be).
