I see no reason why anyone with Virgin TV can't post in this thread whether they watch the channels or not, after all it is a discussion forum.

So if you don't watch any of the channels why bother discussing it?

Isn't this just taking the thread off topic?

Well VM took a big risk but by getting 5x times the on demand content plus GOLD HD and DAVE HD on Mix I think most people (including me who was seriously cosidering moving elsewhere) that VM have played this well.

It might show other broadcasters that VM are no pushover.

What would be nice is to see what the content is that is getting added, also I’d say that virgin took a big gamble but they stood there position and won, next year sky contract up for renewal

"Cable customers lost five free-to-air channels - Dave, Drama, Really and Yesterday - as well as the paid-for services Gold, Alibi, Eden, Good Food and W.

A Virgin Media spokesman said the paid-for channels, which took longer to restore for "technical reasons", would reappear over the next few days.

The new agreement increases the number of catch-up hours available, with customers on the top-tier Full House plan gaining access to "significantly more" boxsets, the company said.

It also adds access to HD versions of Dave and Gold for customers on the cheaper Virgin Mix plans"
