My parent's Sony Tritron CRT died hours before the world cup, we managed to get Comet to pretty much pricematch a Toshiba Freeview HD tv, the difference is massive for them, its a shame our virgin box only has a SCART (analog) connection, was hoping for HDMI so the channels didn't look so crap for them :(

I don't suppose virgin would replace it with a newer box that has a hdmi connection so that the picture would be digital? I know there is the V+ box but they can't afford that.

Thats just stupid at the moment I got Multiroom and I pay just £5.50 a month get the HD channels, Sky Sports, Sky Movies, XL TV on both.

I won't be paying £7 per box thats for sure. I've been waiting for Sky Sports HD and Movies for ages aswell. I'll just have to pay for it on the box box which sucks!

V HD = £49 Activation + £15 Self Install or £35 Manned Install
V+ HD = £75 Activation + £15 Self Install or £35 Manned Install
OR if they want to keep their existing box for another room
V+ HD = £49 Activation + £35 Manned Install + £5.50 a month multiroom charge

Think 10.00 is a bit steep what happens if your only taking sport do you still have to pay a tenner for 2 HD channels.

An Insider has told me today that there is a rumour within Virgin Media HQ that the new hd channels will be £10.00 a month extra month for sport and movies PER BOX

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
 
hmm, i looked on virgin's site, it says the V HD costs £49 for activation and the same for V+ HD, there's no monthly cost for either on XL package. Can i really phone them up and get a V HD for free, what would i have to pay to get the V+ HD, my parents would love the recording ability.

Ben looks to be trying to rip me off, grr!
