I've been a cable customer for more years than I can care to remember and I've got no complaints about the shift to VM. From a technical point of view the combining of the NTL and Telewest systems was no mean feat to achieve - of which still to be completed. In addition, the launch of VM had to be brought forward two weeks ahead of schedule - thanks to SKY blabbing it all over the press and the media.

There's no way that I'd move to another service provider - most certainly not SKY!! Whilst I sympathise with those that have lost channels like Stargate SG1/Atalantis, Battlestar Galctica, etc (my favourites also), I'll get comfort in the fact that programs (a bit like like Karma) come around and around, so I'll (no doubt) get to see them a little later on in the year.

Reading the press reports, look like OFCOM may be getting involved with VM/SKY dispute. Hopefully the SKY bully boy will get the just deserved kick in the proverbial - fingers crossed.

Anyway you tell me of any other service provider than can provide a decent quality internet package without a stinking BT connection??

As for the bleaters who are threatening to move over to SKY, please feel free to join the rest of the sheep, by the way the shepherd is called Murdoch.
