As usual its a coming soon though.
I do sometimes think they just do not learn from their previous announcements.
If they had not mentioned it or had said it will be there from next week everyone would be like that's great instead of a month later saying well where is it etc???

Have you not learned that its best just to chill out and it will eventually appear. Stop getting so worked up over how long coming soon may actually mean.

Keep Calm and Carry On.

I agree. Especially as the repeats are in HD whereas (presumably) this isn't.

Many Sky shows are available on Sky Anytime in HD.

I was meant to add some sort of wishful thinking smiley to that, obviously VM won't have Sky Atlantic on Sky Anytime as VM have decided not to procure that for their customers despite what their wishes may be.

As another poster says, why should Sky let VM get Atlantic programmes through the back door.

Are films in HD? That would probably be something I'd use.

I don't have Sky Anytime+ as Sky have this stupid thing about having to use Sky BB to receive it but on Sky Anytime I have now about 9 movies and there all HD , they download the Sky Premiere films every week on Friday so you can watch them anytime of day and they are always in HD.

Here's a list of films I currently have on Anytime

Planet of the Apes Sky Sci Fi/Hor HD
Escape from planet of the Apes Sky Sci Fi/Hor HD
Last Tango in Paris MGM HD
Shrek Forever After Sky Prem HD
Takers Sky Prem HD
Secretariat Sky Prem HD
Knucklehead Sky Prem HD
Bolt Sky Showcase HD
How to train your dragon Sky Showcase HD

These are updated and changed through the week.

that is one of the limitations with using a saterlite signal to transmit tv signals ,by using a BB line then the customer can have more choice where as with Anytime every sky customer gets the same content and no choice such as BBC i player or On Demand content .

Ether way you must admit that SkyAnytime is a great addition to VM's offerings. Although it has taken its time to get over to VM.

Don't forget Sky have customers taking there services via the VM network EG Customers who take sky services like Skysports/Movies or Sky's entertainment channels.

Wether directly or indirectly these people are customers of Sky and quite often pay more for less than a Sky customer getting there services via satellite.

I know what you mean but I'm not to bothered about catchup I have this on my VM M TV , PS 3 and connected TV however I would like Anytime+ for boxsets and larger choice of movies.

As I say I already have access to Go/Anytime anyway as I use my folks account with multiroom so this is free and they are old and do not use anything like this.
So personally doesn't matter how long or quick it is but all I'm saying is Virgin never mention a date and say coming soon and I would have thought they would have learnt their lesson now with stuff like this.

The 5HD appeared from nowhere and everyone loved it.
They may as well do that or state a date that is all I'm saying.
