Actually, I was basing my comments about lack of interest on Sky's own figures.. However, I think the main problem that Virgin have (and they have hinted as much, but not directly said it) is simple. Sky. Sky have spent a fortune licencing channels for HD, and ensured they had exclusivity clauses put into the contracts.

I personally think that if our government is serious about ensuring competition in the pay and subscription TV market, they need to ensure these clauses are banned from ALL providers.
