VM are not always quiet about launches.

They put those coming screen channel placeholders up. They have done it for a few channels of late. If the BT Sports deal was signed i would expect a channel placeholder to be there.

As for Atlantic, When VM got Sky 1 back and were gearing up for Sky on demand they were quite vocal about that too. If they had a deal for Atlantic to start next week they would be using this to get customers to renew and switch. The longer BT and Atlantic are off VM the more likely they are to have customers switch to Sky or take up the BT broadband offer.

The System Updates page on Overnights.tv has the following...

"TCM2 will cease broadcasting at the end of the broadcast day on 12th August, 2013."

To add more conspiracy theories...

VM current deal for new customers of half price for 12 months is very very good but expires on 31st July.

All these rumours of big channels launching on 1st August makes it a very convenient time end this deal doesn't it?!

It wouldn't surprise me if BT and VM and signed a deal but VM have been blocked from announcing it until August 1st as this is when anyone Joining BT will have to pay for the HD subscription

As far as I know the TiVo EPG is still showing a full ESPN schedule up to August 7th

If this is the case we'll have no announcement till a week Thursday

I'm pretty confident about BT Sport coming to Virgin Media.

Don't know if any of you saw this tweet they sent last week?

Seems like they know something they're not telling us.

I would think that as a business point of all, the way VM are acting that they dont want the extra customer.

If l was running VM, l would have advert galore going out and trying there hardest to get more business. At the moment people are thinking - Sky here we come. BUT VM should be out there getting as much revenue as possble from the BT Sport and Atalntic IF true.

I wonder if it's because adding TCM2 to VM didn't produce the expected additional viewers.
