As I have been saying for months

-Renumber all Entertainment channels plus remove all HD Channels.
-Put Entertainment HD channels starting from Channel 201.
-Move Factual to Channel 261 or 361.
-Move Lifestyle to Channel 261 or 361.

Base on info I got from an Virgin viewer some weeks ago yes.

An other viewer told me today - some Sky channels will launch sooner rather then later.

Broadcastnow has confirmed that Virgin are in talks with Sky for more channels but nothing has been confirmed yet from any of my insiders.

Looking forward to tomorrow now, the prospect of remaining SKY Sports channels in HD and to a lesser extent, Atlantic.

And a friend was wondering, why do none of the adult channels broadcast on Virgin? I told him he can pay for the likes of Adult Channel, etc but he wants the ones where you call and speak to them for around £10 a minute.

He is not looking hard enough - there are a few on VM.

Base on this years channel launches Virgin Media can only launch three channels or channels from one broadcaster per day.

Or based on last year, VM can launch 48 in one day. Take your pick. :)

Saw an interesting article on broadcastnow.com

Sky are trialing ULTRA HD (UHD).This is also known as 4K and is 4 x better than HD . Will need a new TV as well.

We may well get some HD stuff from them but it maybe wont be long before Sky bring out a UHD service to replace it and so the cycle goes on.
