I would be very surprised if the contract didn't cover new channels, VM would be mad to only sign up for a 2010 portfolio of channels for 9 years and they clearly are not mad. I have a feeling it must come down to cost, while they don't charge extra for basic HD channels I can't see how they can just keep adding them and instead have to be a bit selective. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
