Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.

You have to admit, that e-mail is way too open to be officially from anybody at Virgin.. there was no vaugueness, smoke - mirrors or anything.

I wish that you would make your mind up:confused: As some emails you seem to read too much in to them and now you are trying to downplay this one.

I posted a while ago that they were in talks with Premier sports and you quoted it a few times? Now that they are in Advanced talks you seem to be dismissing it:confused:

I just do not believe that email . I did believe you :)

Yes I understand what you mean as I have tried to check the email address and it says that it is a bad email address?

Premier Sports coming soon?

Someone on the Premier sports Facebook page has posted a copy of the following reply they received from Virgin in regards to Premier Sports launching.

"Many thanks for your e-mail.

I am responsible for the content proposition for sports and Premium channel offerings at Virgin Media. I appreciate hearing your views on Premier Sports and your interest in having this channel available on Virgin Media. I agree with you in that Premier Sports provides some great coverage of live sporting events and it is evolving into an impressive channel, I am pleased to say that we are in fairly advanced negotiations with Premier Sports and we really hope to launch this channel in the coming months, I’m afraid I don’t have a set date at the moment but if you keep an eye on our website we will keep it updated with launch news.

We do constantly review and evolve the channels we make available and try very hard to give everyone something they really want so it's really useful to hear comments from customers like you. This really helps us develop our future thinking and product roadmap.

Kind regards Emma

Emma Jones - General Manager
Future Entertainment"

I'm very dubious as to how accurate this e-mail is. How likely is it for a Virgin employee to make the following statement? "We are in fairly advanced negotiations with Premier Sports and we really hope to launch this channel in the coming months.

Where are you checking the email address? As before I send any email I check that it is a valid address?

When PBS went on the epg my total servs were 362. A day later my total servs increased to 363 and the ts streams increased from 47 to 48
and as of today my total servs are now 364

How channels can 1 ts stream hold and 2 total servs hold ?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.

This thread is not the place to discuss headends.
