Thank you, Ignitionnet, for clearing that up properly.

The important thing is that they have perfectly well enough bandwidth to deliver as many DTV channels as they like... but any further ones are down to contractual requirements with the customer rather than VM-specific operational ones.

I assume that the new Cisco kit utilises some kind of multicast capability to headends?
