Completely the opposite of what I said. I didn't say that Universal HD would
not be coming to Virgin Media because of the rebranding, I said not to expect it to come to VM just because of the rebranding. Media Boy's latest 'prediction' is that "ITV2 HD and Universal Channel HD
may become available on Virgin Media." but that's all and I have seen nothing on my humble Pace V Box to suggest that they are coming tomorrow.
Zantarous, what you really should have said is "Why anyone would think Virgin would
launch a channel just because a rebrand is happening is beyond me,
no announcement has been made so it is extreamly
unlikely that Universal HD will be joining the line up tomorrow.".
The statement "On October 18, the pay-TV channel and its high definition variant will become the Universal Channel and the Universal Channel HD on Sky and Virgin Media. The Hallmark Channel +1 will also take on the new branding." is extremely poorly phrased.
Similarly "All channels will become 3D on Sky and Virgin Media from tomorrow" does not mean that you are getting all channels from tomorrow, just that the ones you have will become 3D. And NO, that's not REALLY happening so no "gimme, gimme, gimme" comments or hand clap smilies please!
