As I have said on many occasions, joining a platform is not free to the broadcaster. FTA via Freeview & Satellite provides the most population coverage for the amount they are paying out.

I don't think it's in Freesat's gift to block the channels from Virgin - Freesat don't own them.

Exactly. Freesat is simply an EPG for all channels that are broadcasting FTA on DSAT.

Fair enough. I just assumed they would have some of the Sky owned channels which freeview don't have. I must do more research before posting.:o:

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV 2014

Huge rumour. VM are looking at allowing on demand content to be downloaded directly to the TiVo box and stored on the harddrive similar to Skys OD service.
They will be keeping the instant on demand service but a option will be introduced to record it to the box.
