I assumed Amazon had the VOD rights as it's currently on there?

In some cases what is testing or starting on satellite can be indicative of what may be coming to VM.

As of late, however, it's been more a case of what we are missing :D

I have had to buy a Freesat box to view FTA channels that aren't on the TiVo that I pay a subscription for- totally ridiculous.

Coming soon - a price hike for some.

Sky has increased the cost for Sky Movies and Sky Sports to their customers including us, and unfortunately this means we’re having to pass on the increase to our customers too, from June 1st 2016.

http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...s/td-p/3093739

We are trying to get more info on prices.

I think Amazon have first run rights in UK, history have 2nd run so vm are most likely going for leftover run rights.
I watch it on starz it is a superb show i hope my source is correct as will be a nice treat for vm customers.

Here some Virgin Media Ireland news:

TheJournal.ie: Around 10,000 Irish homes had their TV connection shut off today (Tuesday).

Close to 10,000 households in Ireland will have lost their television signal today, after a transmission network was switched off last night.

The MMDS (Multichannel Multipoint Distribution System) broadcast transmission network provided a television service for households that weren’t connected by cable.
