I'm not mentioning that PC Sky Player or whatever it's called service at all (which I'm not impressed by)I'm talking about the push vod to the Sky+ HD box variant that comes off the transponders sharing with some of the other HD channels overnight. Yes push VOD isn't the same thing and virgin (and freesat) will probably always win out in that one vs sky and freeview but it's still catch up. In SD the anytime tv service is completely pants in comparison to VMs VOD. Catch up HD is an oversight by Virgin. Sky have an absolutely minimum HD service on there so could claim victory on that one (not that they do seem very interesting in that, they seem more interested in advertising multiroom and the sky player through the PC or saying they have more than 30HD channels).
