Sky Go Extra has launched, and TechRadar has already spent a little time with the service to see just how it works in the real world.

The service, which will cost Sky's subscribers an extra £5 a month, will allow people to download content to their device, and keep it there available offline for 30 days.

It's going to be a major rival to services such as Netflix and Lovefilm - which currently only offer streaming services.

We've spent a little time with SGE and we'll be bringing you a hands on with the offering later, but for now take a quick look through our gallery of the service to see what it brings.
