So until one of my insiders confrim this rumour it just an rumour.

Link to info:
My Blog story on the 12 channels at was rumour as set to launch in March 2012: http://mediaboyblog.blogspot.co.uk/2...launch-in.html

Just looking at the suggested channels it was obviously a lie. Why would VM who is said to be short on space, launch niche channels? It also made no sense that Dance Nation would launch when it is the only chartshow plc music channel not on the Freesat EPG and gets far less viewers than the flagship channels Chartshow TV and Vault

If they can launch 48 new channels (even temporarily) then I'm convinced they're "short of space" :)

Space is not a big issue, but it may be that it was more trouble than it was worth to launch new channels before the Olympics channels had run their course.

I guess we will just have to wait and see, which, in the absence of material information from Virgin Media or the channels themselves, is the only way we can be sure of what is happening.

To me personally +1 channels are NOT NEW channels, and l cannot see VM bringing out new channels after the Olympics either.

We have had so many promises over the years, and when new channels come out they are +1. What l want to see is Premier Sports and NEW channels.
