CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
With the recent introduction of CBS Action will CBS Drama channel now be included free in the Virgin media packages. Or is a case of the company continuing to pinch and scrape in the number new channels being added.

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
You might have to ask Media Boy that question, but I think that we will get that channel, but if you cannot wait and do not want to get Sky, get Freesat (CBS Drama is on there!) along with your Virgin TV service

l am sure it will come along sooner rather then later.

Probably not, Chello Zone said it is up to Virgin Media and when I asked them if it was coming on, they said they had no plans.

They have launched CBS Action, The Horror Channel and other channels

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
Virgin Media said they have no plans to launch it at present, Chello Zone said they have made all there channels available to Virgin Media. So Virgin Media probably doesn't like the carriage costs.

Virgin Media better change its mind over CBS Drama and future Chello Zone HD channels!

CBS Drama is on Freesat as well as Sky!

Virgin seem to be more worried about a short term cost for a long term gain. surely to retain customers it needs to competitive on the free to air channels shown. When Freesat shows CBS Drama it shows how far that Virgin have fallen behind. Why do not they not take any notice of what customers would like to view.

To be fair, they have started to add more decent channels, but they still need to do more, let hope they they will during 2012!

They should at least offer them as stand alone channels (e.g. BoxNation) if VM does not care having them on the M, M+, L, XL TV packs!

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
How strange that such a channel is not on Virginmedia, its a free to air channels on Sky meaning even if I remove my viewing card I can still watch it.

Yes but i'm sure those broadcasters have to pay some kind of fee to Virgin Media and if Chello Zone think there is not enough demand for the price Virgin Media is offering, then I think they refuse to carry that channel, i'm not entirely sure if that's how the free channels work on Cable but i've heard that rumour quite a lot.

Sometimes it can be the broadcasters themselves that are being unreasonable or under contract with Sky to offer such a channel exclusively to Sky.

Sky are being unreasonable with Sky Atlantic as they have been offering that channel on there lower packages to customers but want a high amount for it on Virgin Media.

For Virgin Media to introduce an XXL TV package or have certain channels as premium channels for the sake of carriage cost disputes is no good as it shows poor value for money and is giving in to the broadcasters, do you really want Virgin Media to increase the prices of the TV service?

It's FTA on satellite meaning anyone with a satellite dish/receiver can watch it.

They are using it as a USP in much the same way VM do their BB network.

m419 06-02-2012 18:52
Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
Broadcasters are under estimating the benefits of Virgin Media's TV platform, just under 4 million TV customers short of viewing there channels and that means lost advertising revenue. Broadcasters also have the ability to supply Virgin Media with TV on demand content.

With the loss of the Sky basic channels, Sky knew it had to do something as it was losing money, a USP lost them money. It is the same with Sky Anytime, the more features and content from Sky Virgin TV has, the more people that will be interested in taking up Sky's premium channels.

Sky Movies Collection looks more attractive at £19.50 per month rather than nearly £22, the cheaper it gets, the more subscribers it gets and the more money Sky can make.

It's simple, some people don't want Sky and want Virgin TV, that way they still manage to make money from the people who won't or can't join.

I think some of the replies are deviating from the original post, just my opinion. if Virgin has got some CBS Channels already on free to view why are they holding out on putting on CBS Drama

Don't the BBC pay Sky to transmit their channels even though they are also FTA? If the channel was on VM, then it would attract more viewers and therefore more ad money for the channel owners.

I've already answered that in the previous post, they probably think the audience is not wide enough for the price Virgin Media wants

That is mad! So if the BBC refuse to pay, Sky would lose BBC channels and not being funny or anything, but everyone watches BBC channels and most people pay there TV licence, therefore, who would subscribe to Sky when they are paying a licence fee for channels they don't even have access to!

Virgin can do nothing about unreasonable broadcasters like Sky, launch a XXL TV Pack (with Sky Movies and Sports SD and HD, BoxNation, Both Premier Sports Channels, Asia Mela, Sky Atlantic SD and HD, Sky News HD, Al Jezzera and Sky Sports 3/4/F1/News HD and others) so that we can still get the channels (for people who want them), even if it will cost quite a lot!

If you think that the broadcasters are acting reasonalble, they you might as well contact them directly!

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
Some of those are foreign language and community channels,so don't know if it is up your street Alan haha But off a mixed background and the multicultural area London is i'm sure it will serve a wide audience here.

By the way some of the channels above used to broadcast on Virgin Media in the NTL areas like Bubble Hits,Flava and Dance Nation TV. DW-TV,Travel Channel and Fashion TV used to broadcast on Virgin Media in the Telewest areas.

Hellenic TV used to broadcast on Virgin Media Analogue in the Telewest(Cable London) North London area(Camden,Harringey,Enfield,Hackney and Islington) to serve the Greek community and it is not available on Sky and many people are complaining about its availability.

JSTV is only available on Virgin Media Analogue in the Milton Keynes area, which to me makes sense when the Japanese population is next to nothing haha

When I worked in Faults for Telewest, we used to have a lot of Greek customers subscribing to analogue just for this channel in North London. They held on to analogue until it was switched off and rufused to upgrde to Telewest Active Digital. :)

I know until 2009 and everyone was complaining about it, it is madness, there is no way to subscribe unless you use satellite equipment and Sky don't provide this channel, it was only about £6 per month and was on Channel 42

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
Yeah but that works out expensive when you want UK channels as well, I mean think about it, it is a lot of lost revenue for Virgin Media, if they had it on Digital nationally, they would have the £6 per month for the premium channel plus the £24.50 for XL TV, most would abandoned Virgin Media TV for the loss of that channel.

I see what you mean. VM have only just recently realised the benefits of multi-language channels with the Asian Melia package.

Re: CBS Drama will it be shown on Virgin Media
 
In the London franchises primarily the Cable London ex Telewest franchise it is a good idea to get the following foreign channels:

Channel S (Bengali channel)
Hellenic TV
PCNE
Rai-Uno
BET

In the ex Videotron former Cable and Wireless/NTL franchise:

Same as above but With RTL,CCTV,JSTV,Africa TV,Nollywood TV

In the ex Bell Cable Media former Cable and Wireless/NTL franchise:

These Bengali channels listed here by Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._in_Bangladesh

some areas have more demand than others and the most important thing is to meet all customer needs.

I'd love Russia Today, but that's to suit a specific interest that I accept not everyone has. Sky Atlantic, on the other hand, doesn't excite me very much, but the benefits I as a customer would expect from the increased revenue it's carriage would bring make that the next "must have". Producing long lists of channels you want is pie in the sky.

It is at least available online. This is what Tivo apps should be used for in my opinion-filling the gaps in Virgin's channel line up by streaming online versions, not glorified adverts for Sky premium channels.

Sky Atlantic over the internet is only for Sky customers through Sky Go. Russia Today streams their programming for free on their website. I can understand why we haven't got Atlantic, what I can't understand is why we can't have a Tivo app that is basically just the content streamed from the Russia Today website? I imagine it will be down to rights, but what's the actual difference between that and me streaming it to my laptop and displaying through an HDMI lead on my TV?

None, surely?

No, Virgin Media thought it didn't have a wide enough audience so does Sky however, it clearly does. Virgin Media doesn't like regional channels which is probably why they got rid of Channel M,MATV and they also tried to get rid of Channel 7 but it still remains.

Thank you for the update.

I guess at best it's going to be a while before CBS Drama appears on VM especially as VM chose not to launch Drama at the same time as Action's appearance late last year.

It a shame Virgin Media themselves chose (or avoid) answering the question, then every one would know the situation from the "Horses Mouth"

Indeed. Shame their attitude is so very different to that of Smallworld whose boss frequently directly answers people's queries on the DS forum, and on here too I believe. Much respect to him for doing this.

That said, we should extend our thanks to the VM employees here who do help with enquiries. Shame their bosses don't follow the attitude of these people and Smallworld's boss.
