Cable Forum - General Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 2.

Advert in today's star says from August Virgin Media viewers will lose ESPN and the only way to get it and BTSport is with BT themselves, not happy if that's true.

This is true. Sky customers buy BT Sports direct from BT, not via Sky. If VM get it, (which I think they will) this will probably be the only route they will be able to get it.

It seems some people only want to pick up on MB's grammar. No-one else is ever picked up on it.

It's all rather cowardly my eyes.

MB does a great job on here as someone said without him we wouldn't know much about new channels etc.
I agree with you it's cowardly that people target him for his grammar have they ever considered he might be Dyslexic or something.

Keep up the good work MB mate and don't let the idiots bother you most of us on here really appreciate what you do.

We do have a similar box to TiVo but you would have to give up Sky sports.

Brilliant deal NOT

That obviously wouldn't be the way to do it, the way would be to get sky tv and bt broadband.

Possibly, the additional BBC RB streams should already be active by that point. With so many channels having been added to lower packages it will be interesting to see ho VM plans to bulk up the XL package, especially with the ESPN channels probably going at the end of July. It will be interesting to see how VM plans to maintain value for money on the XL package.
