Totally agree , I was referring to entertainment channels not sport.

Well if people accepted the status quo through the ages, we'd still be living in caves.

I don't really care if platforms have their own exclusive channels, as long as the content itself is not exclusive.

Since when has 'what the rest of the world does' ever bothered the UK anyway? The rest of the EU has the Euro. We don't.

It's exactly the same argument as I am making, DaMac. Sport is not an exceptional issue.

Media Boy HQ think due to August 1st being an Saturday we feel Virgin Media may add the new BT Sport channels on July 30th.

As of July 20th they are not testing on Virgin Media.

We have seen no info on channel numbers - yet.

But here is our ideas:

Look like BT Sport are moving all football base in Europe onto BT Sport Europe.

So far I have seen the following Leagues being shown on BT Sport Europe:

Germany:
Bundesliga
Bundesliga 2
German Super Cup
DFB Pokal Cup

France:
Ligue 1

Also being shown:
UEFA Champions League
UEFA Europa League
UEFA Super Cup
Swiss Super League (Some of them being shown on other BT Sport Channels)

All English Football league games look set to move to Sky Sports 5 HD*.

*The Saturday afternoon English Football league game (around 12pm) is listed as being on both Sky Sports 1 HD and Sky Sports 5 HD.

They usually have too much football on a sunday. italian, german, german division 2, french football. putting it all on bt sport europe would mean even less football being shown as they couldnt cover bundesliga 2 in the past due to bt sport 1 and 2 being filled up with italian and french football at 7pm onwards. i hope some european football will still stay on the normal bt channels! good little league bundesliga 2.

are we getting bt sport showcase media boy? what will be on there

BT Showcase will show:

-14 UEFA Champions League

And also some other yet to be confirm rights.

Base on it Freeview broadcasting hours it will broadcast from 12noon to midinight.

As part of BT's UEFA deal they need to broadcast some UEFA games to everyone.

MUTV is on 528

As I said before - I would expect the BT channels to appear in the following order:
BT Sports 1
BT Sports Europe
BT Sports 2
BT Sports/ESPN

So there may be two blocks in the EPG with HD and SD channels grouped together.

This is what BT have done on all other platforms.

Well let's hope they leave room in the epg for MUTV HD, it's Utd v Barcelona tomorrow night, a match that deserves to be in HD, there are people out there willing to pay extra for this service and it is being denied them.

Think you've got more chance of getting Atlantic, I'll be watching in HD on my Sky box- well worth the extra £1. Still not sure about Paddy in HD;).

This is what BT have done on all other platforms.

VM does have more control over its use of slot numbers than its competitors though so may decide to just have a singke block. By contrast, Sky's slots are available to the highest bidder and BT TV's slots are decided as part of the YouView consortium of five companies including BT.

Not at all when it was launching it said launching on Virgin media on mufc.com, the problem was/is that Utd don't want customers to pay extra for the HD variation, they don't on sky, it was obvious that VM wasn't going to launch an HD channel for no extra money.
Ps unlike other club channels MUTV is fully owned by the club they are free to strike their own deals and bid for rights to other sporting events like any other channel, they have recently shown live international matches.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
 
Sky customers wanting MUTV in HD do pay extra for the HD pack.

On VM the HD extra fee is only for the Sky channels - but on Sky you have to pay extra for all non-free HD channels.

I would imagine that they will probably show a second choice match each night on BT Sport 1 or 2 (like Sky did) and the rest on the red button.

The big clue here is that while Gary Linker is hosting the coverage of their top pick games on BT SPORT EUROPE on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (not sure about Europa on Thursdays) you also have Jake Humphrey hosting the second choice matches. I can't see them investing in a team with pundits etc.. for red button only coverage. I'd also bet most of the games shown on Showcase will be selected from the second choice Tuesday matches in the early rounds and during this they heavily promote the Wednesday games to try and get public to sign up.

They showed the Celtic Champions League Qualifier on BT Sport 1 last week and I noticed the new studio set up, very similar to the Sky set up. I wager one game will be on hosted on location and the other from the studio.

is it the studio in the olympic park again?? i always liked that but then someone decided to present games on the side of the pitch which i always hated. nothing quite like seeing three ex professionals getting heckled on a rainy snowy day by fans in the stands looking for "banter".

Put them back in the studio. Get rid of michael owen. Hire andy gray. It's quite an easy fix

when will we see bt sport europe arrive this week?

If other UK companies are getting hold of HBO content, doesn't this lower the value of Sky Atlantic? Just thinking that maybe VM will be able to negotiate a better price based on this.

20 quid for a box set though...isnt it cheaper just to buy the dvds if you're that bothered about game of thrones.

I hate how the article states sky keep subscribers due to having sky atlantic. please dont stroke the ego of the evil $ky owners... its probably a correct statement but no one could ever prove its sky atlantic that keeps sky its customers its probably their very cheap introduction offers.

So there may be two blocks in the EPG with HD and SD channels grouped together.

This is what BT have done on all other platforms.

We now think that way too.

If other UK companies are getting hold of HBO content, doesn't this lower the value of Sky Atlantic? Just thinking that maybe VM will be able to negotiate a better price based on this.

Exactly, the main thing is people who subscribe to MUTV would pay a £1 extra but VM won't even give them the option.

Indeed as they want companies to pay a kings ransom for SA content which frankly is unrealistic but Sky knew that anyway.

Put them back in the studio. Get rid of michael owen. Hire andy gray. It's quite an easy fix

Totally agree with you Vince regarding getting rid of Michael Owen and replacing him with Andy Gray. And using the studio rather than the pitch side too.

Sky offered it to vm vm wouldn't pay the asking price fair play to them but end of the day it was offered to vm, so constantly saying "Sky don't want anyone o have it" is wrong. It should be "Sky are willing to let others have SA but at stupid prices" :p:
Anyway anyone really wanting SA can get it via nowtv for as little as £3.49p/m with a little bit of work ;)

I'd agree with you on this one, Andy Gray, despite the problems he had is still an excellent commentator. I just can't stand Michael Owens droning nasal voice.

I reckon Lineker will not stand for any of that pitch-side nonsense.

I noticed that towards the end of last season that they moved to the pitch side studio used for Fletch & Sav for half time and post match. That worked much better in my view. The pitch-side stuff is very much a Jake thing and apparently not popular with the pundits.

As to Owen I'm with you on replacing him, have horrible feeling it will be Andy Townsend who we'll see more of rather than Andy Gray.

It did seem a jake thing as he loved being in the pits on f1 so you can imagine him wanting to be "close to the action". I hated it.

As for Owen will they replace him or will they not want to admit they've made an error in the first place by hiring him? I'd imagine he's on big money too so how long will his contract be for? I'd even take Townsend over him!

Owen will continue to cover PL and FA Cup as he has another year on his contract but Champions League is new so perhaps they may try new options, and with so many games to cover they might use Owen for second choice games with Jake. We'll know soon enough.

As to Townsend, no better than Owen in my view, just a different type of annoying.

Mind you if you are drawing up a list of potential co-commentators not on SKY who would you pick after Gray? Sorry in danger of going way off topic.

P.S - La Liga UK Rights bidding gone to second round after SKY bid lower than before and BT showed interest. Would certainly increase the value of BT Sport Europe.

.... It will be surprising if they swap the HD versions of the Sky Sports channels around. 511 onwards is much easier to use than keying in 501. In fact I'm surprised that VM and Sky never started their channels with no "11" to begin with and removed the first 10 places from the EPGs, ie:

111 - BBC1
211 -
311 etc

Yep, last time they moved them into the 200s section, renumbered them and then moved them back. Here's a couple of pics, look at Watch HD:
