No Home HD or Really HD? :shocked:

Wonderful, old 4:3 cartoons in HD :rolleyes:

And HD versions of channels with vast amounts of teleshopping...

Nothing very compelling on that list.

There's some good stuff on Yesterday, and I'm a huge Jon Stewart fan, so the first two on that list would be very welcome.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Attheraces HD would be nice as well.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Ah more hd channels on the way. Excellent. TruTv coming as a new channel. And then potentially a surprise from virgin media after those questionnaires? Then do you think we'd hear of this? And what could the surprise be?

Free netflix? Free premium hd channels? I'd take either! I can imagine this potential surprise being announced just a few days before the price hike...or maybe Christmas? Or maybe we've all been bad this year and we won't get anything at Christmas but coal (and a price hike)

Morning all,

Great news about more HD channels.
I may not watch them all personally, but it's great for VM customers who watch these channels, to be able to watch them in HD. If it improves the service overall, then it's brilliant :)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Perhaps not so much NEW channels as upgrades on existing ones - but welcome never the less. Are there any rumours about new channels - ones not yet on Virgin Media?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Indeed good news and as discussed elsewhere there really is very little left not on VM and this list if it all comes on air will make it even littler!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Just TruTv which could launch next month apparently. i'd love to see a list of channels sky have which vm dont have currently to see what i'd like and what is out there for vm to get..

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

My inlaws have Sky and have tried very hard to find something not on VM I would love but there really isn't anything except that unmentionable channel which I could say would be good to have....and I'm not a fan of that channel really anyway....

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Hey Vince,

I'm at work, but I will see if I can find something ;)
Afterall, what else is there to do on a Friday while sitting in the office browsing the internet? haha

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

It makes a lot of commercial sense for both VM and Sky to continue to increase the number of HD channels they offer to put space between their TV offerings and those from TalkTalk and BT. I can only see this trend continuing thanks to the competition from BT and TalkTalk.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

I actually see HD as more of a necessity (rather than increase of competition)with new age televisions as they continue to approve their screen resolution , I have campaigned for High definition to be the "standard" definition; a must not an optional, lets faced it anyone who has tried to watch skysports 4 golf, or any other sport in SD (which is lower than the standard "standard" definition most other channels provide)

with UHD being tested and on the horizion it wont be long (whether companies are ready to accept or not) will be here soon and within the next decade I predict it will be in operation in same way HD is now but with HD being the "standard". Where technology pushes, companies follow

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

Surely some channels will not be in HD for many many years?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 3
 

HD is already the standard isn't it? Very few Freesat/Freeview boxes/TV's are now without an HD element and all major channels either in front or behind a paywall have an HD variant.
