As most TVs owned in the UK are now HD (at least, according to The Gadget Show), it seems ridiculous that Virgin still only offer a handful of HD channels. There should be serious efforts made to secure *every* HD channel commercially available in the UK, and to get each new one as it comes on stream on day one. Virgin need to think of HD as the standard, with SD as a relic to be replaced as soon as possible.

I'd also like to see some new, modern PVRs deployed. The current V+ box is so out dated I'd be embarassed if I was running Virgin. They need a box with a modern, slick, responsive HD interface, such as Windows Media Centre in Windows 7.
