Of course, should I want to be really picky too, I could suggest that the number of vehmently pro-Virgin posters on here mixed with the prolification of VM employees have all voted with the majority, so their votes mean that the switch to Sky figure is being kept artificially low! Fortunately, I'm not that picky.

No most of what you have said in that para is totally irrelevant. The only way a true poll can be done is taking a count of people who actually have Virgin services. What Sky customers think or whether they think they can put themselves into the position of a Virgin customer has nothing to do with it. It's not i don't credit people with intelligence, it's just for the sake of this poll, in a proper count, their opinion wouldn't count. Of course they are more than welcome to vote as it's just a point of interest on these forums. Just it has no relevance on what will happen as when the numbers of subscribes comes in, in a year's time, as they won't have lost the viewers in droves like one person said and the 15% figure won't hold up. Anyone can quote me on that!
Being an R&I Officer, l would get slated if i did such crap research as that.
I could counter the fact that due to this site's legacy, there is bound to be a lot of anti Virgin people on here.
The poll isn't representitive.
