FOX News will not be launching on VM anytime soon, although it was testing something happened and both parties withdrew.

Shame. We need something to counteract the completely unbalanced and negatively biased view of trump put out by the BBC. Fox news, I suspect is biased the opposite way, but at least you get both sides.

VM rumoured to announce further price rises in April.

It's BT who are raising prices but not to say its competitors won't too:

Rivals Sky, Virgin Media and TalkTalk have all announced price increases within the last year.
So far, customers of BT TV have not had to pay for BT Sport, which includes live coverage of Champions League and some Premier League football matches.
However, from 1 August they will now pay £3.50 a month.

Oooh thanks for that time to renogotiate towards the time.
You'll find VM will be raising prices then too expect a announcement soon,
I think SKYs is around about June and talktalk around about same time too.

Yep the roundabout swings around and others will pop on it soon enough to announce their own price rises.

Its a case of who will be the cheaper...the whole "internet only, kodi box for my tv" era is potentially dying since im hearing a lot of internet providers will be trying to go after these type of people. (due to the fact they want money for tv subs)

Sky, virgin media, BT will all be equally expensive for what i want. So each price rise occurs and i nod my head sadly and take it like the stallion i am.

And yes den very sad about fox news and i cant view it online. Terrible!

They can keep going after us we'll always find a way around it.
SKY, BT, movie studios, tv studios etc should take long hard look at themselves and they'll see why people use grey area things to watch shows movies etc.
Might be something to do with how expensive it's becoming to have a tv sub for example skys basic tv is £22p/m now and that's without hd, movies, sports and box sets.
BTs equivelent pack minus sky channels and fox but including bt sports and from this month boxnation is £10p/m don't take a genius to figure it out.
Also £13.99 for a dvd they're having a giraffe man i tend to wait awhile and grab dvds/blu rays for £5 or below.
