The Box (335) - XL Pack > M+ Pack

Kerrang! (342) - XL Pack > L Pack

Smash Hits (337) - XL Pack > L Pack

Great news, wanted Kerrang for a while but couldn't justify £20 more a month to go up to XL TV. £7 is slightly better.

I think VM really need a package between L and XL now. That has all the channels that XL has but without HD and ESPN.

There is goods news USA Drama Created By JJ Abrams Person of Interest Has Been Picked up By Channel 5 and Will Be shown in July 2012.

It seems to me that Virgin are beefing up the M+ pack now that digital terrestrial conversion is reaching conclusion, with the London area just converted they may be trying to pre-empt customers who may cancel M+ and go to Freeview.

You could be right. Virgin has some really good M+ deals with TiVo all at half price for 6 months for new customers. With Euro 2012, Wimbledon and The Olympics all around the corner now is a great time for non-pay TV customers to join Virgin, to enjoy a summer of sport in HD, with 3 tuners to help catch all the action.

Just saw this on DS and it says for anyone interested, the BBC Olympics channels will occupy EPG numbers 550-573 for HD and 574-597 for SD. and Eurosport 3D should return to its former channel number 523.
