Exactly what's the point of paying for cale just to watch the BBC? I got cable to watch stuff other then then the pap on the beeb.

I have Freeview as I don't live in a cabled area. Though I could happily live without TV at all. In fact I did do for a few years.

It's quite ironic really. :)

When I first moved into the place I am now, I had no broadband or phone and a barely usable Freeview signal for a while until NTL (as was) finally decided they could install.

I actually managed quite well finding stuff to watch and, although I'm sure I could easily do without the extra channels that I get through having cable, I'm happy to have them whilst I can afford it.

Would be completely lost without my broadband though :D

My partner gets TV from VM, but I only watch TV when I'am in my study for the morning news or PM's questions ( BBC 2 or BBC parliament ) really need to get a grip on life?

Yet you have almost 5000 posts on a TV service forum? If you watch so little TV why post here and not somewhere that fits in more with your interests?

The telecommunications industry, stock market and the TV industry are a query of mine. So I will post here as it interests me:)

My Son & his wife really seem to want to switch to Virgin for the TiVo. However, he is not, as there is as yet no "full" BBC red button - he will wait & see what "comes soon" The other half wants Atlantic *! So I can`t see them changing any time soon.
*Refuse to look at what it offers in case I get upset - we share the same tastes in shows & books.

There nothing Tivo or Virgin related in that link, it only mentions a iOS and Android app.

I found out about the app on the Virigin Media Preview Channel on Virgin Channel 100.

I was only posting the links for more info on what the app may look like.

...but that link is for an iPhone app that makes it look like you are being beamed. Something in relation to a Star Trek convention in Canada

I am not an Star Trek fan - I did not read link before posting.
