Virgin have currently 1 HD Channel (That is BBC HD) and Sky have about 33 HD channels, however Virgin does have things like 4od, ITV and BBC iPlayer so if you don't mind waiting for HD channels and prefer TV on Demand then Virgin it is, but if it's HD content you want more then Sky is the logical choice however their ADSL speeds will always be 'upto' and no matter if they say 16mbps, you may only get 8 as it depends on how far away you live from the exchange.
