Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.
 

Apart from HD, Virgin aren't that too far behind in terms of quality. It all comes down to taste. If I was to return to Virgin, the wife and I would like to see the following channels added first:

SKY Atlantic
The Style Network
Food Network
SONY Movie Channel
FOX News
MTV Classic
Controversial TV (It shows live boxing)

One big factor however would be the time delay in a new channel launching, and Virgin adding it to their line-up. At the moment I'm pretty much guaranteed all new SD and HD channels from launch. No prolonged negotiations, no wild speculation and no terrible disappointment.

Look out your tin hat for adding that one mate, it wouldn't bother me in the slightest if it was added mind you....:D

We had Virgin for a few years, and were very happy with it until a couple of years ago. Losing MTV Classics led me to writing a letter of complaint to Virgin, not that I ever knew it would do any good. When new channel after new channel launched on Sky, (some of which were actually quite decent), but failed to appear on Virgin, I got a little more annoyed, and then when Diva closed down, and they proudly proclaimed their best programmes had simply moved to The Style Network, which Virgin didn't have, nor would get It was the final straw.

I was exceptionally Naive when Sky announced in 2010 their recently purchased channels of Bravo and Virgin 1 would close, but the void would be filled with Sky Atlantic.. I actually believed that this would go for Virgin viewers too, and when people started to fuss about not getting it on here and DS I laughed, believing it was obvious we would be given something to pacify us after the loss of two decent channels, and Atlantic was the obvious choice... but in the end we got nothing. CBS came, and nothing, Sony came, and still silence, MTV Classic disappeared overnight despite the fact it continued pretty much everywhere else, Diva TV went without replacement, and then I was out of the door too.

Sure some of the channels have made a very belated appearance on Virgin, but its not what I expected of a large multi channel operator by any means.

I now have Sky, and miss the Virgin on demand offering, but I do have all of the major broadcasters available. I have MTV Classics back too, which is great news for me, but I have also become attached to Vintage TV... an excellent offering on Sky, but another reason I can never see me returning to Virgin.

Yes, yes it is :erm:

2 "reality" programmes seem to be taking over her life. Giuliana and Bill is very popular as is Tia & Tamera. Thankfully The Style Network isn't in HD or this drivel would be eating up some serious hard drive space.

Started watching a bit of Vintage TV myself recently. There was a documentary about 80's music on last week that was interesting.

SKY's line-up of on demand and catch up is getting stronger and stronger. Whilst not as varied as Virgin, there is plenty available to keep me occupied.

Virgin seem to be making the right moves in terms of adding new channels. It will be interesting to see what Virgin, SKY and BT offer by this time next year.

Universal had moved from 162 to 137, but not sure if this happened yesterday or not. Only noticed when I went to look at Universal this morning for something to watch.
