All? Most VM customers don't have a HD-capable STB, and most don't subscribe to Sky premiums.

Cinemoi is a subscription channel and Sky Arts 1 and 2 took a year to arrive after it was promised and they have still to deliver some of Skys on demand offeringss which was mentioned a year ago as well.

One small, but extremely relevant, flaw in your otherwise immaculate hypothesis - I don't work for VM, or any affiliated company. :D

You would suspect wrong.

We are Moderators, not 'members of staff' - no renumeration is involved, our time spent moderating is voluntary, and there is no 'hymn book' (there is also no link to VM, other than unofficial contacts to escalate CF members issues).
