Probably the Dumbest Question Ever?
 

Could BT Vision be used with Virgin Broadband in some way?

I know the Box would need a Broadband connection, but could it not be routed into the BT Vision box?

Or does it HAVE to be a BT Broadband Connection?

For on demand services you only need a BT phoneline I think im sure someone will correct me if im wrong.

Hope this Helps

IFAIK you need to be on BT Broadband (well for now anyway).

I'm sure the BT Vision site will tell you :)

Bummer... That equipment is actually quite impressive... but not enough for me to say Bye to 2 years of service from Virgin.

If it works the same way Homechoice does, it relys on ADSL to recieve the VOD (ADSL video is handled by seperate hardware in the exchange). Even if it did work with standard IP connections, it is almost certain BT have configured their VOD servers to only work with their IPs.

That's what I thought they would lock that content into their own domain :erm:

Not really a dumb question, if you don't ask then you don't find out...

No such thing as a dumb question.

It possibly won't be long before they release a box to plug into your existing BB router. They'll miss out on loads of business if they don't. :)
