Maybe Netflix would be a suitable replacement for the woeful PictureBox, which must have very low subscription numbers these days

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
 

would providing Netflix/Lovefilms hamper our relationship (call it what you will) with Sky whom we rely on to supply other chanenels.

PictureBox was never a threat but supplying Netflix/Lovefilm option VM would be suggesting an alternative to Sky for which we have a wholsesale agreement.

Is there an OFCOM ruling saying they HAVE to supply Sky movies, I think there is one to cover reasonable costs but I refer to the original point is that by pursuing this are we danger of not obtaining the final installment of the holy grail of HD/SD channels remaining not in the VM portfolio

Just think we could follow the AVP motto is that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and with SKY Vs BT we could try and use it to our advantageto procure the other channels

Voting will start in September for the 'best channel launch on Virgin Media' on my blog.

Due to size of the channel launches this year I will be doing an month vote then the top one will go to the best channel launch poll.

Poster of the year has to go to Squire Howard :nworthy: methinks and for the naughty man poster of the year l think that has to go to that purveyor of naughtiness Mr Stokes.:waving::naughty::nono:

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
 

I am not doing an 'naughty poster of the year' that will take too long for me to make my mind up.:D

I have three posters in mind for 'poster of the year'.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
 

I'm sure poster of the year would be BomberAF?

Also I post on here more than MM and OLD BOY, wow.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
 

A random off topic question I just need a quick answer. Can you get virgin media without a phone line? We have XL tv, sky sports and medium broadband and large phone. If we remove the phone is this possible and how much would I save?

I love you all

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 4.
 

I asked this six months ago and was advised that you can drop the landline but that the saving is er not much....
