I really hope that is not where the DOG will be left, this is a HD channel no need for 4:3 safe area.

Great news.

In response to the 'ESPN to show NBA'

This is just the NBA Live game from the o2 which is why ESPN probably got the rights?!

I dont think ESPN have any rights to the normal NBA season from the states - if they get it absolutely amazing!!! I know they managed to get rights to show some of the playoff games and i guess they might do this again rather than show the whole season

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Hopefully it'll all become clear soon.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
 

Try this and they have got rights to games from the season and also in HD!

The CBS branded channels launch on the 16th November.

Zone Reality becomes CBS Reality but Zone Horror remains unchanged for now.

The other Zone channels, which are not available on cable, are also launching with Zone Romantica becoming CBS Drama and Zone Thriller becoming CBS Action. It's unknown whether these will come to cable, but I expect VM will pick them up post analogue switchoff.
