I doubt it would help with channel negotiations at this early stage, but into the future it could well do, yes.
Another remark from an analyst I picked up on was, he asked if the pvrs are too expensive and a waste of time, now that VM has network storage and VOD capabilities and customers should just use that. One of VM's director's responded that the cost of the boxes was "significantly less than £199" and still falling and VM don't see any need to phase out pvrs yet, especially as they're just launching a new one!
