I know it's a matter of opinion but to me VOD is already far better than Sky 1 ever was. It's like having a shelf of dvds you can browse through whenever there is nothing on the TV. For instance, a couple of weeks ago I checked out the synopsis of a series called 'the closer' and knew straight away that I wouldn't like it but my wife would love it. She watched all the episodes within about three days while she was ironing etc. and thought it was great.
The only programme I ever wanted to watch on Sky 1 was the Hogfather. Thats one programme in over ten years. If you look at the viewing figures for Sky 1 it's obvious I'm not the only one of that opinion either.
BTW I'm not sure why you are concerned with whats on VM any more anyway Bikerjoe as I thought you had voted with your feet.
