Virgin have BBC HD, filmflex and various VOD HD content such as BBC stuff like Cranford and 5 episodes of Planet Earth and from other channels a page or two such as The History Channel's The Universe (6 episodes) through to a few episodes of The Sopranos.
So that's
30 v 1
2 box office channels v filmflex
Sky anytime HD v nothing from cable
nothing v <100hrs TV Choice VOD
More HD channels definitely launching v "coming soon" and a string of lies and broken promises
Virgin will be getting more HD content but while they've spent time "thinking" about it Sky have already added/adding another 5 HD channels in that time period.
