Back on topic, this only seems to affect TV on demand for Tivo users. Seems to be a good reason to keep V+ box!

Well, as I ignore all the ads at the moment, I expect I will just ignore the targeted ads....:D

My thoughts exactly, Hugh. A big fuss about nothing. (As was Phorm, as it turned-out but that's way OT)

Yes indeed the ads have no impact in our household either.

Where did I say that? Go on. Show me.

I am getting seriously annoyed with people like you who seem to want to put words in my mouth (so to speak). Please STOP IT :rolleyes:

Nowhere in that post did I say I "liked" Phorm. I don't like ads either. But if I have to suffer them then at least make them relevant to me.

Wouldn't that just mean you saw ads from Virgin Media about TIVO :)

Just kidding :D

Carl, you've made it clear that you (like me) record most of what you view. Skipping the advert breaks is a bonus. Timeshift is a wonderful thing :)

Has this imminent plan actually started yet?

Not that I know of but.... I expect it will be 'coming soon' in VM speak.

Does this imminent plan worry you that much or have you got some input that will help us ?

The longer it takes in my eyes the better, but you will have a different reason for it to be delayed

Can I not ask a simple question or make an enquiry without you and the other VM cronies questioning my post?

Keep up the harrasment! Just makes me want to post more.

Well done on getting your edit in there quickly. Sly at hiding the reasons for you posts ;)
