EDIT: Apologies for the rant but the same argument is being covered over and over again.

So is anything coming soon to Virgin TV? This used to be what this thread was about?
To say that HD is just a small pin prick is ridiculous, I don't think that expecting a decent HD offering from the UK's second largest pay TV provider is asking too much, especially when it was this company that "first" offered an HD service.
Then again maybe you meant to say that VM's current HD offering was equivalent to a "pin prick", because of its paltry offering.
