I’ll start to worry when Sky give out BT Sport and an unlimited SIM card.

I can see why Sky would want to keep the Paramojnt! Perk for their own platform, but this is obviously also being used as an incentive for take up of the flagging Cinema channels, so you'd think that they'd also allow this on Virgin to boost take up of Cinema.



Maybe Virgin simply wouldn't cough up for any subsidy required??

Comcast and Paramount are already working very closely in Europe with the SkyShowtime joint venture. The Sky Cinema deal is possibly just a way of bringing the content together in territories with Sky TV and, therefore, without SkyShowtime.

Three agreed a bundle deal with Paramount+ although only in the ‘Three Your Way’ plans

It was never going to included with Sky Cinema on Virgin, Whether there are able to bundle with Ultimate Volt or something is anyone guess.

Yes, the BBC THREE HD versions in both Scotland and Wales with the movement information slate appearing on channel 157 on Virgin networks in those areas.

I did reports on Virgin Media Forum last night of Paramount+ being launch on April 12th on TV360 boxes.

https://community.virginmedia.com/t5...ht/true#M45898

But my Sources did not say what boxes would have Paramount + from launch - but I know TiVo always miss the new apps.

Nothing on the V6 today so it must just be on the TV360 boxes.

Software version 5.01 has started to appear on 360 boxes. Personally, I can't see anything new from version 4.46 despite the large numerical jump.
