What would make you happy... (TV Wishlist)
 
This year, what one thing would make you happy that Virgin did?
(Regarding TV)

Feel free to discuss whatever, whether it can be done or not :D

For me it would have to be that they got more HD channels they are very few and far between at the moment :( would also be nice if they dropped the price of having all the Sky Sports channels as well :D

I second more HD, in particular I would like to see the Sky PAY TV saga end with any result that would mean I get the full package at whatever the cost. Namely red button and HD channels. I would be happy to continue paying for the lot if I got the lot.

Here's hoping anyway.

I'd like to see the Virgin 1 channel become even better. They need another top program to replace Sarah Conner now that it's been canned. Virgin 1 HD would be good as well.

I think Virgin need to expand the network of cables though. They should look around the area's that have cable and see if they can move across the road to the people who at the moment can't get cable.

+1
I know an estate that would like cable as they cannot get Sky either for some strange reason in an area by me.

World peace.....

Oh you mean with Virgin, More HD channels would be nice the Sky ones and all the others. And hopefully not to expensive. I don't mind paying for more HD channels as long as they are a reasonable price. Also would like the V+ software to be updated with something a bit more responsive.

Happy New Year to all

for me has to be allowing you to use Sony Bravia Cable tuning by allowing you to purchase cams from virgin.

Or doing a deal so virgin tv service is capable to run on PlayTV sonys ps3 Tv addon - Although that would mean sony change it to incorporate Dvb-C

The BIG one though Virgin anounce DVB-C2 been installed and finished we get shiny new boxes to run Mpg4.

That Catch included everysingle programme and included the films, absolute everything that channel transmits and it be 14 days to cover people who go on holiday.

Vod had every programme ever seen the light of transmission. There is loads of programmes would love to see which never get re-aired. Also virgin stop missing episodes infact put them all up for that series.

I still want to see the finale of the invaders sadly uk never shown the 2 part 90's mini series which had roy thinnes in as a cameo role as the invaders returned. I have only known about this since I got the complete boxset of the 60's show and people was disapointed the 90's one was omitted.

Not asking much but every single one above would be dream come true.

Who would foot the bill and the other television companies would not be happy, cost alone would rule that out.

Get a V+ or even 2 to record any programmes you really cannot miss.:D

Again cost would be the issue here as it would require a hell of a lot of storage space which would cost money, would you be happy to stump up more money for a programme you may have missed while sunning yourself.

More HD content!

It's frustrating to be sitting in front of a 46in Panasonic Plasma costing the best part of a grand and there is hardly any HD content to watch!

To get all non-sky HD channels. Should be simple enough to achieve if VM are serious about HD.
