It was mooted on other forums that the samsung V+ was unreliable,and the picture upscaling quality on SD was not as good as on the S/A V+,but never having had a samsung V+ not too sure on that.Although the box i heard is a lot quicker.

Just hope my trusty S/A V+ keeps going then.;)

I can't fault the Samsung V+ and my picture is pretty good , I got it after my SA V+ kept rebooting , the speed on the sammy is much quicker.

Would be nice if it's cheaper for VM subscribers that Spotify (which I'm a subscriber to).

Yes it would be good if Virgin customers got a special deal.

I wonder when 3 months became imminent?

Really glad they've got a music service coming. Personally, I'd have pfrefered WE7, Napster or LastFM, but Spotify will be a good start.

If VM don't get special rates, I wonder if it will be the £5 or £10 monthly subscription that is required?

it really depends how many customers they want to attract so it would not surprise me if there was a offer of some sorts.
