It isn't even moved to the deleted folder - it is completely removed.

But some are available for a little longer.
Yes, I know, ozsat, but there is no reason that I know of why Virgin Media need to operate in that way unless there are rights issues that prevent this.

Unless of course there is nothing to link the recording to when the 7 day period expires. That would make the whole idea a non starter!

WWE still have not agreed a new deal with Sky rumours are surfacing that BT Sport are going to bid.
Well due to the 'Do Not Post' I seen just before Christmas - BT Sport will not go after WWE.

If WWE goes to BT then it goodbye to Sky Sports for me.

It'd be interesting to see WWE Network being picked up by a TV channel seeing as it's a 100% online based subscription service much like Netflix...

The only info I have seen was from before Christmas coming with an 'Do Not Post' order from an Virgin Media Viewer.

They also said: Do not post as it is not for public consumption until it has been made public and if you do post it will just simply not happen.

No confirmed news from any insiders since 2013.

Rumours on the web did say yesterday that if Sky signs an new deal with WWE we may see an 'Sky Sports WWE Channel' coming to the UK and Ireland.

Why, when you are championing streaming services (which I agree with) do you want to clutter up a hard drive (thus reducing recording capacity for recording other things) with things that can just be streamed?

Sorry but what a complete load of tosh.

So you've been told by a viewer that if you post something without permission, VM will not go ahead with whatever it was?

LOL
