Rumour:

An old 'Rumour Poster' says that Sky are thinking about relaunching Sky3 on both Sky and Virgin Media.

Wonder why no HD on virgin.

I was told the other month that they were negotiating carriage for the HD variant, looks like talks broke down.

IIRC, at the time the name was changed, it was said that, whilst they wanted to push Pay TV on it, Sky were worried that the quality of this channel would put people off subscribing to Sky.

Is the rumour that Pick will revert to being called Sky 3, or do Sky intend to open another Sky 3 in addition to Pick?

MUTV won't be charging any extra for its HD variant so it will be expecting not to pay any extra to broadcast, as usual Sky can facilitate, Virgin can't.

I suspect that this is nothing to do with Pick TV, and more to do with what was planned to be Sky Bravo. We'll see.
