Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2017)

RE: Amazon Prime.

Sorry to be thick but would this just be an app we would have to subscribe to? Presume VM customers wouldn't be getting it for free.

Just found out Amazon Prime have bought ATP tennis rights and not sure how I'm going to be able to watch it now :(

An new source has just told us that Virgin Media UK are in talks with Sky.

We know what about but we are sitting on it for now - we want an Media Boy Source to reconfirm it.

We now got 5 Do Not Post orders.

Well, no-one can say for sure where VM is concerned. Those who do know for sure aren't allowed to reveal anything about it. So without the speculation, what is the point of this thread?

No idea if true but i heard SKY are launching a 5tb skyq box soon, if true maybe vm will follow suite with a v6?

I presume that's to accommodate UHD recordings. Whether VM follow suit will depend on whether VM will offer UHD content for access through

- On demand/streaming only or

- Live TV channels that can be 'recorded' by way of the cloud.

VM will be discussing a new Sky Sports deal nothing to do with Atlantic. VM want to start selling thee Sky Sports channels on a single channel basis.

We all know that ITV and VM are in discussions my guess is ITV Encore is the channel coming soon.
