It kind of suits both parties. VM don't have to pay a certain cost per subscriber and potentially lose money and only those who really want it will pay for it themselves and then VM can still market it that BT sports is available to them as apposed to not.

BT then also get better exposure, the revenue direct and Ofcom won't be breathing down their necks either.

Quite a few FM's on a rival site are very pessimistic about this deal. It seems a lot don't think the link is genuine - as the link can't actually be found on VM's website?!

The BT Sport website still states that BT Sport is not available on Virgin Media at the moment.

Hopefully this will be updated in due course

I am going to stick my neck out here and say this, AS VM are going to push for bb, they will come to a deal with BT Sports over the BB thingy, and get BT Sports CHEAPER than Sky, and offer it to customers at £5.00 per month.

VM with Liberty, will push for more customers and offer better channels, and l would expect some American stuff to come our way, and the channels they have in the states are great. There is a fantastic channel over there called Tv Land, which shows some great stuff like the Beverley Hill Billies etc.

The Rifleman, Laredo etc.
