From Digital Spy:

Current details & prices of the new VOD service

Re: Survey by IBurbia of NTL Video on Demand!
 

someone is dreaming video on demand is not comeing to ntl this year,they did not say it was.

Re: Survey by IBurbia of NTL Video on Demand!
 

I think you may be surprised.

As the service appears to have already been split into various packages (movies on demand ppv & monthly, tv plus, catch-up tv) it suggests ntl: are gearing up for a launch, at least in a trial area. I would say it's definately past just trialing the technology.

It may be a few months or more away, but I'd say we will see something later this year.

Will this require new set top boxes or just a software upgrade?

Re: Survey by IBurbia of NTL Video on Demand!
 

a software upgrade.
the set-top-boxes are supposed to be ready to take vod. but i'm sure many of the old ones will die, cos they is crap.

I don't know if it means much, but my Tivo gained an extra channel this morning: NTL-OD. Could be interesting assuming OD stands for On Demand.

Re: Survey by IBurbia of NTL Video on Demand!
 

I don't think it means anything. My TiVo had various channels added, including NTLOD (named NTL On Demand Events) last week, all on channel 0. Channel 0 is now used for all purchased Front Row movies and purchased events. If you go to channel 0 now you'll see the Front Row guide.

Re: Survey by IBurbia of NTL Video on Demand!
 

Channel 0 has always been used for PPV on Bromley -- CWC designed a much better system in the first place ;)
