There will always be an element of perveived subsidy for different genres as of course everybody has different tastes.

The point was raised though as ESPN is actually a premium channel, not a basic sports channel like Eurosport or even Eurosport HD so it is obviously expensive to provide. We know how expensive Barclays Premier League costs to provide to pay the monkeys millions who play it!

It must certainly be more expensive than Sky Arts but I know where you are coming from.

Can we keep all ESPN becoming a Premium or not at

Leave this thread to channels that may actually be launching on Virgin Media soon.

You're probably right.

Cheers Mod ;)

The arts channels aren't premium channels; ESPN is.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

ESPN channels are great part of the XL package they are the biggest reason for me have XL. Why dose some people just want more and more channels just for the sake of it. Surely it is about programe content that is important.

That's why many people want Sky Atlantic; it has new, award winning shows on it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Is the Sky on demand content still planned to arrive on VM ?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Do not know it may be to expensive:erm:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Yes, Sky Atlantic it looks good on the adds on Sky. But I do not think we will be getting it any time soon, Sky have used Atlantic to give two fingers up to Virgin and its customer. I remember get Sky One and was very excited be now I hardly watch it .

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Looks like you're getting nothing anytime soon. Can't even get sky arts HD for god sake :rolleyes: of course virgin reps on here will continue to trot out that you'll receive early christmas presents then oh just wait and see what happens at the start of the financial year:rolleyes: what next in time for your summer holidays?:D

Be honest with yourselves as far as tv is concerned yer getting hee haw while sky pile it on:p:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

But SKY Atlantic is soooo popular........................................... ........................................not even with SKY customers.:D:D:D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

The only one that counts for me on there is the financial year as i do not celebrate Christmas and never go on holidays.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Mad Dogs was good but there is little we watch on Sky 1, it's encouraging they finally seem interested in UK productions though. Their rumoured purchase of Shine Productions (the biggest independent production company in the UK which they already have a share in, and was set up and run by Murdoch's daughter) is hopefully a sign that they have finally realised a lot of British people still prefer British programmes but we will see.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
 

Hilarious;) wouldn't surprise me if Virgin dropped tv altogether soon, you're going nowhere:D
