Interesting piece in today's telegraph concerning Virgin Media's priorities.

Quote:
Mr Berkett expressed relief that Virgin Media had focussed its cash on investing in fibre, rather than following BSkyB down the track of investing in content – suggesting a certain level of sceptisim about BT’s recent £1bn sports rights spree.

“Sport, and football in particular, is highly emotive. Hundreds of millions of pounds swim around each game. The level paid for these rights is quite extraordinary…but it is only part of the product,” he said.

BT’s decision to buy up Premier League football rights is “an interesting move,” he added pointedly. “I’m always of the view, ‘remember who you are’. We are a network. We are an amazing brand but we are a network and we took the view five years ago that we wouldn’t buy content, we’d invest in the network.”

Well l wish that the BB lived up to the standards then. Some eveining my BB is that slow and when you call CS, they say its the amount of people using it. Yet we are paying a lot of money to get BB.

There's no doubt whatever that with increasing competition that the board is set and the pieces are moving with regards to the next few months as all the providers increasingly battle for our buck and l for one expect more happening's in the next few months from Virgin as BT Sports come on board.

UKTV Really goes all night.

From Saturday UKTV's Really will start broadcasting from 4am to 7am.

That will mean Really will broadcast 24hours a day on Virgin Channel 267.

With Tellyshopping broadcast from 2am to 4am and 7am to 8am everyday.

FREEVIEW News: The Extra broadcasting hours will not be shown on Freeview just Sky and Virgin Media.

@Neil Berkett... what use is a good network if you aint got the product people really want to obtain from it??? When it comes to TV you are a reseller, and as a company investing millions in aquiring and creating content They are going to do their best to deal you out and sell straight to the end consumer, you have nothing really to offer, they just endulge you to keep the competition regulator sweet, in 10 years time Virgin Media will either not exist or will be about as significant to the TV market as Pace and Amstrad ie you will just be another sky delivery system.

Content provision is slowly (and not so slowly) moving on line. That's where a good network comes in.


We are in a transitional phase ATM but the future is online provision.


And Sky are even a customer of VM's network provision.
