Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2

As their was only one test with all the channels named, I wonder if these channels will be IPTV, but have their own EPG numbers?

I also wonder if BBC3 will remain on the EPG, but link to the VOD programmes via something like the red button.

AFAIK BBC3 will close sometime in January 2016 and show trailers for the VOD offerings for two months.

If you get any concerts with US country artists over here they sell out in minutes. Its the music industry over here that thinks we don't like it, & it seems tries to discourage promotion of country. If they quit trying to mess with it ( & we know they do) & let it stand on its own merits we might get somewhere.

What's needed are channels playing hard rock and metal music not the banal rubbish that is on most of the channels, also channels with classical and country music would be good
