An insider confrim to me that the Asian channels on Virgin Media is being ''look at again''.

But I was not given any channel names.

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

Why? If they can make a profit from selling on these channels to the Asian community then good luck to them. And if the asian community is willing to pay for them then why shouldn't they have them?

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

Why? The Asian channels on VM are very profitable and will mean more choice.

Don't VM actually charge for a couple of channels in the Asian pack that are free on Freesat?

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

This is the one that I'm waiting for. I've got a Sky box just for this channel and hoping not to have to use it (not really got anywhere to keep it so will have to set it up every weekend)

Hmmm, didn't Setanta Sports want Rugby League last time the TV rights were up for bidding, but Sky still bid more. It will be interesting what happens with ESPN in the bidding this time. I'm guessing Sky will win again, but it's nice to have the bidding war. It can only be good for Rugby League in the end.

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

It would be great if espn got the rights for superleague
It would save me £29.50 a month and I would sleep much easier knowing I'm not paying so much towards footballers daft wages!

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

We still don't have a completely unified channel line-up yet which I find bizarre if it's all coming from a single super head-end. :confused: It's almost there though ...

What possible technical or contractual reason could there be left for not having these two radio channels available in ex-NTL/C&W areas? :confused: It's not that I am desperate to have them, it's just that it implies there is still some distinction between the platforms that impacts roll-out of future services.

---------- Post added at 10:52 ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 ----------

I have all of these news channels:-

TV Guide > More > News ...

• BBC News
• Sky News
• CNN
• Bloomberg
• BBC Parliament
• CNBC
• euronews

I'm not sure but TV5 may have news programming in French also.

Personally I find euronews very good as when there is one major news item, either at home (e.g. MP's expenses) or abroad (e.g. the current Egypt crisis), the mainstream UK news channels tend to devote their entire 15 minute slot to that one item before repeating it after the headlines, whereas euronews covers a much wider range of European and international news stories in it's bulletins.

Note: I'm on the XL TV package, your experience may differ!

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

It's good to see something might be done about this. Perhaps they could now turn their attention to Sky's linear channel platform. It has all got to be good for the consumer.

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

I don't know why they couldn't leave them all as "Five ...". The naming convention of "Channel" and number is antiquated and, whilst some stations in the US, Australia and elsewhere still bear the remnants of these marks, most are moving away from such simplistic monikers in this multi-channel, multi-media world in which we live.

I can even see a time when BBC One, Two, Three and Four will become BBC Prime, Entertainment, Alternative and Culture with a similar convention being adopted by ITV. Prime was and Entertainment is the name used for BBC broadcasts to Europe and the Middle East and these names make just as much sense for the domestic services too.

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

It's not technical, so it must be due to existing contracts. There's no reason to think future services would be impacted by this.

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

It's good to know that it's not a technical issue and that it should not delay or complicate implementation of any future services but it's still weird that the contracts for these last two channels have not come up for renegotiation since the NGTV roll-out and consequential merger of platforms. Surely there are no Telewest-only contracts still in force this far on.

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

Telewest did sign long-time contracts with broadcasters all the time.

I think Virgin Media will drop RTE Radio and WRN Radio when deal is up for renegotiation.

I wish for Virgin Media to renegotiation with GMG Radio for Real Radio and Rock Radio to launch on Virgin TV.

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

Very interesting. The last week or so is showing that things are likely to change regarding broadcasting rights in the not to distant future.
I do hope that it will be to the benefit of the customer, though I doubt it.

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

I doubt that would ever happen. Sky's linear platform has significant competition for programming with very few exclusives.

:D

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

I agree. As I've said before, if Sky want exclusive rights to programmes on its TV channels, it should be prepared to make those channels available at a wholesale price to other platforms. If they are abusing their privileged position, they should not be allowed to get exclusive rights.

---------- Post added at 20:53 ---------- Previous post was at 20:47 ----------

I wonder how deep? Do you think they will give Sky a run for their money with the Premier Football contracts next time around?

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

I am not a big sky fan,But sky are willing to invest in programs for there channels it is only natural they want to recover some of there cost not only from there own subscribers but from selling there channels to other tv providers.Vm decided to pull out of the channels and program market by selling there channels so what do they expect,If there not willing to invest in programs why should they expect to get them from sky for next to nothing.They should have thought about all this before they sold the channels especially to sky.

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

but we don't know how much Sky are asking. Much better that VM get it at the fair price, afterall it's a niche channel as I've said all along and the viewing figures are embarrassing for Sky.

VM did the right thing ;)

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

I agree apart from a few new series the rest of the stuff on Sky Atlantic is just old programming used as filling. It would have been nice to see some of these new series, but what you have not seen you cannot miss.

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

VM did the right thing ;)[/QUOTE

In your opinion.

I still cannot see any viewing figures for Sky Atlantic on the Barb website although I too fully expect them to be low when they appear.

But do Sky launch these channels to obtain massive audiences? Reading Jeremy Darroch's comments they seem to do it to differentiate themselves from their competition and it seems to work. Nevertheless it's available in 10m homes. It's part of a wider package of PAY channels. Sky's ad income makes up only about 6% of their total income. However their targetted audience for Atlantic is not that of say Sky Living or Sky 1, they are aiming at a far higher demographic and advertisers will pay accordingly even for relatively low audiences. That's why UKTV's Good Food is so successful, the audience are a far higher demographic than say ITV1, Nigella followers if you like, the sort who shop at Waitrose rather than Tesco! Not huge but lucrative all the same.

Sky know full well if they show a list of channels and point out they have Channel X and competitor Y dosen't most Joe Bloggs subscribers will go with them. It's human nature.

Take a look at their latest subscriber numbers, they simply do not lie. All Sky care about is how many people subscribe to a particular PACK. Have you seen Sky Arts ratings?, very low but Sky know that's another group of customers they can hook into a PACK of channels, do the ratings really justify 2 HD versions? Sky clearly think so. Why do the operate Sky News which loses money hand over fist? Maybe because it's part of the overall package.

But that's all just my opinion.

Sky have made a lot of noise over Sky Atlantic and by the looks of it, it has so far failed to become the hugely popular channel they made it out to be. Sky News are even in trouble for over promoting the channel and Ofcom are investigating them.

Sky News has always been marketed by Sky as a loss leader (that's why it's on Freeview) and it acts as a barker for Sky programming with adverts for their channels non stop. It's there to promote Sky.

The same as Sky Arts, it took over The Arts Channel when it went bust and runs Sky Arts and HD equivalents at a loss to show Sky has "upmarket" channels.

p.s. I don't post other peoples opinions, I have my own ;)

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

[QUOTE=Digital Fanatic;35171351]For the record Sky never took over The Arts Channel, they took over Artsworld.

438,000 viewers dosen't seem too bad to me but I accept that's only one show, the other figures (if true) were low, I agree. But I have no axe to grind.

Maybe the figures will pick up in the 10million homes who have access to it, particularly when the tranche of brand new shows start.

The Guardian!, cough cough. A touch on the biased side but you'll appreciate that.

And regarding having your own opinion, I suspect that isn't quite 100% true but understandable all the same.

It's totally understandable but I cannot accept you always give an honest personal public critique of VM, but freely seem to do so with Sky though.

Let's wait for the next set of subscriber figures on both sides, they are the best indicator. They are all that matter in pay TV anyway.

In my opinion.

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

it's still my opinion

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

Yes i do think they will give sky a run for their money espn are bigger than sky will ever be.

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

I hope ESPN do too but i'd rather one or the other get the maximum 5 packages.

But even if they say got 3 packages I reckon it would have to be offered as a stand alone sub like on Sky.

Or XL would be considerably more expensive.

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

Why? Because there`s enough foreign channels on virgin already and as far as I`m concerned they`re takeing up space that other channels could occupy. Too many shopping channels and radio stations also.

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

If what we are told is true capacity is no longer an issue on cable.

If there are channels missing that you would like I suspect it has little to do with 12 International and 8 Shopping channels and a selection of radio stations taking up space.

Ask VM why they are not available.

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

Wel I and many others don't watch Sky Sports or Movie channels. So I demand they get rid of those as well......as we already have eurosport espn etc plus several movie channels :p:

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

You only get sky sports and sky movies if you subscribe to them, were as we all get them awful shopping channels and radio whether you want them or not. But I take your point.

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

I've noticed that but then I always thought that the Virgin "staff" members that you see on forums like this are paid by the company to post which is why they never deviate from the company line.

Probably over-thinking it haha :D

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

They still take up the space though

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

But as others say its not a space problem, VM can't get the channels for a decent price or the broadcaster doesn't want to be on VM

Don't the shopping channels pay to be on VM, if so they are discounting the rest of the channels you have

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

Comments like this are only going to push staff away from the forum. we give our time free to help others.

We are not paid to post, hence our disclaimers in our sigs. I'd be a rich man if I got paid for all the help I've given on this forum.

Seems to count for nothing though. Seriously considering leaving this forum and I mean it.

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

Digital Fanatic - Don't leave the forum. Your opinions , as far as I am concerned, are welcome and valued. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, sometimes I think others forget this when they do not agree with a particular set of comments.

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

Agreed. We all know who are the staff members here. Why some people find it neccessary to jump to Sky's defence all the time even when they are shafting us and witholding exclusive content from us is what I find strange.

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

I am certainly not paid to promote the company line on this or any other forum.

I will post if you are posting about something illegal or against the Terms and Conditions that you signed up for, which in the main is unlikely to stop anyone.

We try to offer you good sound advice about the products Virginmedia supply but we cannot provide anyone on here with business sensitive information as we would probably lose our jobs and most of the information we provide can be found in the public domain.

On many occasions I have posted that if you want to get your TV services from SKY then go ahead as you can still get your broadband from Virginmedia which in the majority of enabled areas outclasses SKY's broadband offering.

We post on here as forum members that have been confirmed as being Virginmedia staff by the forum team, but we post in our own right as most of us have disclaimers in our signature.

So before posting any comments such as the one above please think about it first or even PM a member of the moderating team for advice before hand.

Read the above.

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

Don't go! I know I've only been here for a couple of weeks but your posts are always insightful and most definitely helpful.

This forum and thread would be NOTHING without people like MEDIA BOY and DIGITAL FANATIC. They are the people who give us enormous help and inside information. We have already lost BIG RED because of idiots.

DIGITAL FANATIC has my support and i would MUCH rather he stayed and others went!

Wait, was that my phone I just heard ring...? No, dammit :mad: :D

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

If they didn't 'deviate from the company line', then this thread would be aimless and everyone would be knowledge-less on most advancements of Virgin TV and more.

If DF goes then this forum will lose many members because the highlight of the forum is knowledge of things before everyone else, without that, its just a support and arguing forum.

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

But surely if you start slagging of the company in public on this or any other forum, the company won't be too happy about it?

Whether you have anything negative to say or not, surely any negatives are subject to some sort of gagging pressure? Which at times can lead to a one-sided debate (i.e. Sky vs VM), if you choose to get involved.

I think the key here is to remember that VM staff are VM staff - even if they do have something negative to say (and I'm not suggesting that they do), I wouldn't expect them to post it on here. Maybe this needs to be remembered in the wider context of a debate sometimes.

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

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

I have never thought that at all personally and wouldn't wish to associate myself with thoughts like that.

I would like to see more balance that's all but it is a cable forum after all and i'm sure satellite forums could be equally skewed in opinion.

I always think it's better to sell the great things about your own company, of which there are many, rather than provide endless negative information regarding competitors. It seems a bit desperate if i'm honest particularly if the subject refers to a service VM customers don't get.

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

As I said about myself that is something i do not do, I even say if you want your TV from one and your broadband from the other then go ahead as both parties get a slice of the cake.:)

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

I can honestly say I have never seen you do so Masque, I disagree with a lot of what you do say but the point in question I totally agree with you.

Anyway what I want to know as a VM customer is what are we getting and when, let's concentrate on that.

I'm looking for more channels and sooner rather than later starting with the channels already promised months and months ago, not channels like Atlantic that were never promised in the first place.

Talking about Sky (and I'm as guilty as anyone) is a waste of time as we are not their customers.

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

I do faults so do not see that much in the way of new stuff and what we may see is usually business sensitive so not for you the public, most of what we post is freely available if you care to look for it.

You disagree with things I have said, thats terrible.:D

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

You might be surprised to learn this but I believe there are one or two people who have the audacity to disagree with me too ;)

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

Hey i know that it is coming up to Spring and in all the hunting magazines that i have been reading it all says that "baiting or hunting VM Staff members is now banned and is now punishable with death":D:D:D

So can we all get along as we all want the same thing and if it does not go our way we seem to lash out at the staff.

Can we all just get a grip as they are here to help us on their own time.

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

Can anyone confirm if Sky content will be going on VOD ?

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

You could say that for pretty much every channel and also On Demand to be fair. I tend to have a few shows series linked from a variety of channels and certainly don't sit watching the same channel all the time. To that end Atlantic still has some decent looking new series. My wife is American too so she's not too please to be missing out on this channel either :D

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

They said a long while back that Sky VOD content will be made available on VM but I don't think it has been confirmed when or indeed what actual content will be made available but i'm happy to be corrected on that.

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

Still stand beside my opinion/thought

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

Please don't let a few trolls drive you away. I think the majority of people know that none of you gets paid for helping out on here. Your opinions are your own, and if they fall down on the side of your employer it's not down to being paid, but down to believing in the company that you work for (or else you'd not work for them).

I don't work for VM, but find myself often echoing or repeating many of the points made by VM staff because my opinion is the same. If I hated VM so much I'd leave. Yes, sometimes the way they go about things frustrates me, but I'd bet many times it frustrates staff even more because their hands are tied.

Ignore the ones having a pop, and know that far more people appreciate the efforts that VM staff on here go to to be instructive and helpful.
