Default Sky Plus box question?

This is a simple one really that has probably been asked before.

If I cancel my subscription will the box still work with all the free channels?

The box will still work in that you will be able to watch the fta channels but you wont be able to record unless you pay the tenner a month recording tax which still exists for non subbed boxes

You also wont be able to watch anything previously recorded on a pay channel.
