No Gay TV channels still,anyone know when they are coming?

Faze TV and Pride TV were due to launch between 2005 and 2007 but never appeared and where scrapped due to failed agreements with Sky. This is obviously Sky being homophobic in my eyes, they have so much crap on there platform like Red TV,BEN,Hollywood TV and they are supposed to put up something for anyone, yeah right, I don't see any channels for the gay community and it is a very large community.

Alls there is Gay TV which is porn.

If the channels where launched exclusively on Virgin TV,Top up TV,BT Vision and Tiscali TV as a premium channel of something like Â£3.50 per month, maybe this would be more successful and maybe more commercially viable.

Even better, maybe Virgin Media Television what do a good job?

OK I've had to delete all the posts from this thread because they went silly from the beginning.

This thread is about when VM will carry 'gay-orientated' channels. There's nothing to suggest any broadcaster is 'homophobic' so we won't have any discussion likt that in this thread.

If you have a strong opinion on whether a network is prejudice then use the appropriate forum area to set up a thread about it.

i think its because they want so much money for contract and VM think because us gays are a minority then we will pay through the nose and it doesnt happen.

[mod edit: discussion about deleted posts removed]

I heard Rumours MTV were Launching a similar type Channel that would probably Show Gay Programs etc. Not 100% Sure

Other than that Im Undereducated In the other channels You listed Although PPV porn is Like you said Listed. Maybe your better off Finding Programs On the Net. Like off one of these American Streaming sites
