I have no knowledge that it is coming and no knowledge that it isn't. I don't know.

An Virgin Insider told me in November 2013 that News 18 is coming to Virgin Media but is still to be given an confirmed launch date and channel number.

Old Boy doesn't seem to get that. There is no denying that Netflix on Tivo is useful, though limited in it's potential, but it is by no means essential.

I do understand what you are saying, passingbat, but I think you are making the mistake of assuming that you and the people you know are typical in this respect.

The majority of the population certainly do not have this equipment.

Well, yes, and just because there's been a delay doesn't mean it isn't coming. Prepare for surprise very soon, Dave ;)

What, they don't have a DVD player that is very easily and cheaply swapped out for one that includes Netflix, and also has the added advantage in that it plays Blu Ray discs?

Nearly everyone has a DVD player.

I'm afraid I'd side with PB on this one just look at the vast volume of games consoles that have been sold in the UK Netflix is available on them all so thats Xbox , Xbox One , PS3 , PS4 , Wii its also available on most tablets , smartphones , laptops and many of the popular streaming devices , Blu Ray players and Smart TV's.

Indeed. The only thing it's not on in our living room is the TV itself and that's only because it's a few years old plasma, nowadays smart TV's are the norm.

It's quite impressive tbh. They've went from something that you had to specifically go out and buy a device to get it on your TV to now being including as standard on practically everything. You'd have a harder time finding new hardware without it than with now.
