Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

it not like they hiding the terms to get it it all on the websites it customers choice if they want to upgrade the boxes or not no one is forcing them too

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

They don't seem to be taking "no" for an answer. Daily messages being sent to my V6 boxes, on how i "need" to 'upgrade'. Deleted each day, but they resend daily.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

Thank you.

Sky are saying that Sky Atlantic will be available to 3m homes (the total number of Virgin TV customers), whilst Virgin say that it will be made available to 1m homes. This must mean that Virgin have 1m homes with the 360 or stream and 2m with the TiVo V6

This is probably why they are really trying to push the 360 now. Unless it's an error, this must mean that Sky Atlantic will eventually be made available to every customer.

I doubt that Sky will want this to be too long as it will be affecting their ratings & ad revenue. I'm sure that they know that the new arrangements will result in a decrease in viewers, so one way to try and negate this is to make the channel available to cable viewers.

Virgin has a long track record of misleading customers. As I am sure most people using this forum are aware of In some form or another. This is just an other example

Same thing happened with the Sky Sports + channels. Initially VM said 360 only and you have to "upgrade" to get them. Hey presto, a few months later available on the V6. Advertisers are everything, and won't be happy if the audience is restricted.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

So what do you want from a box. Me recording clearly, be able to find shows l list and record. Move it forward, pause, rewind . TV apps. Audio description, for when I can't understand what is being said. And epg that works.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

It's what advertisers want that seems to be the main consideration now. i.e. you not being able to ff through ads, or having to pay extra to avoid them. Glad i kept my VHS recorder, could come in handy.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

Yup. Same. Makes me want to leave VM more than upgrade.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

Have to pay for it ,but is the one thing l really like about Netflix. Can't shift them on U, sky on demand it's guess work, seems to be around 4 minutes, at least with V6 can still easily skip them.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

I don’t need to fast forward through ads because I don’t get any ads on my streamers!

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

Because you pay extra for the priviledge... Recording , you don't need to pay extra.

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

So true , still my first choice, then it's a question of do I really want to see that program :D

Re: TV360 - pro and cons
 

True, but then again, with Virgin Flex, you don’t have to pay for all those channels you don’t watch.

I know you have a different mindset that favours the status quo, but yours isn’t the only way, that’s all I’m saying.
