I have subscribed to Virgin since they launched as NYNEX back in the 1990s, but it just seems that Sky are pulling further and further ahead that it is almost a no brainer - if you can get Sky then why stick with an inferior product which costs similar?
It is getting to a point where you could liken Sky to Waitrose and Virgin to Aldi, only there's no difference in price!

I agree with you, unfortuantely, and have downgraded my tv service to 1 V+ box for bedroom as I wasn't going to pay Virginmedia £12 a month extra to watch movies in HD per box and then not get all the HD channels too. I have now moved to Sky HD and I am loving the quality of the movies in HD along with all the other channels. I swore I would never return to Sky but Virginmedia are getting more and more behind Sky all the time and I had enough, the EPG on Sky is fantastic and so modern compared to the V+ and easier to navigate and find channels especially HD.
I for one would never use Virginmedia for television as it is extra £10 a month for Sky HD compared to £12 for Virginmedia (V+HD box charge £5 plus £7 HD charge).
I will stick with Virginmedia for phone and broadband and leave the TV to Sky.
