Update again (Also from Rumour poster 2):

An Rumour poster has now updated me to say Sky Atlantic will only be on the XL Package plus Sky Atlantic HD will not launch.

I'll throw a rumour just to make the full set.

Sky Atlantic SD will be in XL with Sky Atlantic HD to go into the VIP collection.

I'm a Virgin viewer and it's not confirmed ;)

So early in the morning.

CNET are reporting that the Canadian government are considering ending bundled tv channels.

The consequence may be that the niche channels may not have enough subscribers to survive. But hey ho. If new "channels" or programmes can pop on YouTube and Netflix, then maybe it's not all doom and gloom.

Haven't I just said that in post 893 :D

They've never had the VIP package as an exclusive for HD channels. So unless they change their entire policy i can't see this one happening :)

Random question but: - How do we all know what area we're in?

The consequence of this will be that unbundled channels will get less money from advertisers. All that is likely to happen is channels will move away from linear broadcasting to pure on-demand content.
