I've heard an announcement is scheduled for early next week and it will be good news.

The person who told me works in BT but knows a few people higher up and although he doesn't know for certain. He thinks its going to be included in the sports package. That could mean they put the sports package up a few quid to cover the costs etc.

Really really hope it's true :erm:

Well i hope if true they don't force this on you, i prefer not to have the BT sports package and stay on the price i pay now. There is nothing of interest for me on the BT channel.

However i must admit that i don't believe a word of it as i never listen to those friend of a friend type posts :D:)

Both of which will be recorded via wishlist. Also I have had Peter Cushing pop up in many TV shows (most recently Tales of the Unexpected) and countless radio shows. Gotta love the wishlists. If never miss does that, I will happily eat humble pie:)

Sadly there is one Sky user who posts on here who can't accept that any part of the VM service is better than Sky. An immature attitude. It is just as misguided and untrue as any VM user posting that all aspects of VM are better than Sky. Fortunately the other regular Sky users offer a fair and balanced view.

I dont mind saying some parts of VM are better than Sky. For example VM BB is better than Sky BB or Sky Fibre, also VM offer better value for money on some products and the no extra cost of HD channels is great value for money so i also have a balanced view. I have never said that Sky are better than VM overall just some products

Well, anyone who thinks that Sky's Never Miss is as good as Tivo's Whishlist feature is clearly biased in my view.

It's like me saying that VM have a better channel selection than Sky, which is completely untrue.

Interesting observation Phil, I wonder if this is in preparation for the impending arrival of BBC Three HD?

I had never heard of this place before 2 weeks ago I come here for a heads up on the BT Sport situation. it's a rubbish forum because too many people cracking inside jokes to eachother intead of being on topic. you think something has happened when you see 50 new posts but it's 3 pages of 3 or 4 mates inflicting their terrible banter on us all.

msn messenger would be a good shout. or a little device which you could type into, select a phone number, and message the person with required unfunny inside joke. you could call it a mobile phone, and the typing could be called text messages. shame nobody has ever thought of this before. it would be an idea worth billions!

This thread has special dispensation to wander off topic within reason, but I do sympathise with your point.

None of what you have posted about ESPN is backed up by the companies involved as far as I can see - in fact, most of it appears to have been contradicted by official statements and advertising. It may well be that I've got that wrong, if so I'd be grateful if you were to point me in the right direction.

In short, I shall try and explain the salient point of my post again. Sometimes information that we receive is information that we should not really be privvy to and it doesn't do to go asking too many questions. Due to the very nature of the information involved, you are unlikely to get any answers, no matter how much you pry and much of this information is unlikely to be found on the internet or anywhere else.

If the subterfuge involved in obtaining and sharing some pieces of information has no credibility in your eyes because it cannot be verified, then so be it :)

If by homoerotic you mean the practice of referring to other men as "master", I think it's an in joke.

I doubt it means anything to do with the BDSM scene :-D
