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.

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

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

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!

Yes Alan like to say this or that about everything but the trouble is he never does what he often threatens to do.

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!

Can I add my weight to support CBS Drama being shown on Virgin Media whose seem totally opposed to adding channels that customers want. It is the customers who gives them their revenue after all.

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!

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.
