That's a fair point and besides I was only trying to join in with the renaming fun :p:

In all seriousness though has there been any announcements for any new non-HD stations?

The £7 charge should be gone and so should the SA V+ HD boxes.

Who would have ever thought XL TV with sports and movies and HD could be possibly 57.50.

Not too bad if that what it is going to be - Sky charge £58.50 for everything + HD and that doesn't include ESPN, Film 4 HD (yet) or the On Demand library that Virgin customers get

Fair one mate.

Lol, I know. It's silly isn't it..? I've just done a comparison on line and a comparable package to my VM pack with Sky works out £4 p/m cheaper (but with many more tv channels with Sky)... I must be doing something wrong, I know on demand is useful but I can't for the life of me remember the last time I used it !

Put my pack into Sky's site, would cost a tenner more than with VM so it doesn't always work out cheaper on Sky.

It is starting to look stupid... This whole topic is actually swaying me more towards Sky than VM. Similar package but more content and cheaper with Sky.. I need to have a little sleep and try to work out exactly why I stay with VM, because at the moment I can't think of a single advantage which I actually use..... Hmmmmmmm....

Dish looks silly on the wall and Rupert Murdoch owns Sky.
