@LondonJohn1959 We apologise for exciting everyone. We're just waiting on the delivery truck on this one & will keep everyone posted ^Wm
Again, no straight answer... :(

In all the excitement, someone forgot to order the socket strip to plug the new satellite receivers in. You know how it is:doh:

And an answer would make it happen sooner, how?

Other people have said this, but it's people moaning on and on when something gets delayed that puts off VM announcing things in advance.

Time for some people to grow up IMHO.

I can't get why ITV on demand is not on Virgin when SKY still have it, I don't think it is fair. And you have to pay now on ITV Player website.

On demand as been on vm a lot longer than on sky,they have had ample to time to sort out a deal for it to continue.Looks like another example of vm sitting on the laurels and doing nothing I'm afraid.:(

I guess it's ITV's content and they want to make money out of it, but it's a loss to Virgin's on demand offering, especially as it now doesn't appear that there is likely to be any uktv content coming.

Virgin have the best platform to offer on demand programming, but appear to have come away from investing in it in favour of bulking up their channel packages.

Simples as Sky have always thrown big money at getting exclusive deals.

But clearly they haven't here try and read the link , ITV OD content is available on Sky , Netflix and BT Vision so ask ITV and VM what the situation is.

Who knows the ITV content could be linked with a deal for the additional ITV HD channels.
