Why would sky give virgin Atlantic though? When they have just put it on now tv .

To be honest Virgin Media and Now TV are totally different demographics. Now TV is for people who want premium tv but don't want to pay a premium or be tied into an 12 month contract. Virgin is for those who want access to everything and are willing to pay and be locked in for it. If Sky were clever (which they clearly are not) they would do a deal for Virgin to have the Now TV app on Virgin Tivo, but Virgin would say no. This makes wholesaling the channel to Virgin Media makes perfect business sense. |

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 5.
I never know anything but sky atlantic will eventually come to virgin media. It's inevitable. It'll be either when costs for the shows goes up and they need to cover costs, a new boss comes in with a "ground breaking new strategy which involves making tons of money quick or hbo turns around and says they want sky to increase viewership etc
Just like sky with held the basic channels because it made sense at the time these things will change again. Just how long it'll take is anyone's guess |

It hurts sky in the long run. The "sky don't need VM" argument doesn't really work. Remember sky want to make a ton of money. They're starting to realise VM customers currently aren't gonna move over to sky without sky losing a ton of money on deals. It's a stupid policy. VM agree. They lose so much money. The real target audience is people who don't have subscription tv but stay on freeview So many of these people are out there. They're the money customers now. Sign them up flirt with them with sky Atlantic etc on now tv. Get a fiver off them a month. Brilliant untapped market. A fiver ain't expensive. Easy money to make off an audience who are shy to move to subscription Sky realise people on VM aren't gonna be seduced by another subscription service around same price Sky Atlantic as the golden goose to draw people has failed. Sky know this. They just wanna save face a bit now and get something reasonable |

Without HBO, Sky Atlantic is in trouble, and if Netflix and others also grab the film rights from studios as existing deals come up for renewal, Sky will have to think about the implications of that for Sky Movies. I'm sure they will come up answers as they usually do! As far as Atlantic is concerned, I expect they will put all their US dramas on there in the future and put home made shows on Sky 1 to replace US programming on that channel. If the 'Strikeback' series is anything to go by, this could be a successful strategy. Sky 2 needs a re-think and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a re-branding here. Pick TV should start showing more good programmes during peak hours that were shown on Sky 1 up to 10 years ago. That wouldn't cost them too much and would enlighten non subscribing viewers to what they have been missing on Sky without existing subscribers being resentful and wondering what they were paying for if newer programmes were shown on that channel. This would reward Sky with increased advertising revenues emanating from the bigger Freeview audience. Sky Movies is different though, and will require an alternative solution. Although they could just rely on showing more films over two years old, they would need to lower their prices, which would be a good idea anyway, given the introduction of Netflix (and Lovefilm at a later date) on VM. Lower prices, in turn, would increase subscriptions. Incidentally, if I were making these decisions at Sky, I would ensure quality British programming during peak hours on Sky 1, and Sky Arts 2 would be the new Sky 2, with a few changes. This would be a bit more in keeping with the BBC 1/2 model and would transform the perception of Sky for the better in terms of quality broadcasting. It would be a good way of encouraging customers who do not currently go for pay TV to take the plunge. ---------- Post added at 13:48 ---------- Previous post was at 13:45 ---------- Quote:

I assume the current lack of adverts for Virgin Media is related to the rollout going on. Cutting it fine for Xmas installations though...
