They are coming, the only question is exactly when. All I know is this autumn.

Is this the news you were waiting to announce or additional treasures?

Rumour: Netfix may launch very soon in all areas.

One of my 'Rumour posters' has just told me that all the Netflix trials have finished and went smoothly, Netflix expected to launch as early as next week (I know an date but not going down that road again).

This is good news, and I eagerly await how they will build this into Tivo (Subscription or included in package)

I'm hearing vm customers will get 6 month free trial and it'll be free on XL tv pack but at a discounted rate of £3p/m for other tv packs except for M which it'll be full price.

Is Netflix likely to be on Tivo only or is there a way it could appear on V+ or VHD boxes for example?

Could it be that Christmas is coming early? Very good news, if true.

This is all great news, topping off a fantastic year.

I like all the rumours flying around as it's a great way of getting some insight into the future of VM.

I'd love Sky Atlantic to start before the 16th October as The Tunnel starts then and that looks quite interesting, if not I hope on demand has been negotiated as well.

Also I'm now looking into how I can cancel my Lovefilm subscription! ;)
