Given its ratings, I wouldn't be surprised if Eden went Free-To-Air though. BBC Studios have a slot on Freeview they could potentially use, namely the Dave Ja Vu slot, and it would likely get them higher ratings than that +1, and almost certainly no worse, so better than Eden is currently getting.

I agree. Plus many don't realise the BBC own UKTV and would be annoyed because, in their view, the BBC shouldn't make money in other ways, even though it's being doing so for a very long time in various ways.

Why would you want to draw attention to this nonsense? People who want this crap should go to the internet, which they can get what they want for free. Much more explicit, it to boot.

Not that I am endorsing that, of course :erm:

Q: Why is Sky Sports Racing HD not on Virgin Media for?[/B]

A: Base on information found by Media Boy HQ on Wikipedia We can confirm that Sky only part own Sky Sports Racing (Sky own 50%) with Arena Racing Company.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_(company)#Ventures

We did think Sky own about 73% of Sky Sports Racing before tonight.

Sky Sports Racing HD is not on Virgin Media because Sky don't want it on there thus there is no carriage for it , Arena Leisure have no influence on Sky's decision not to carriage it at all.

I highly doubt that Den , Sky gives access to all its other key Sports channels in HD and has even signed a deal for its UHD offering on VM.

Sky Sports Racing HD is hardly must have exclusive.
