OK, sure.

People need to get some perspective here - Sky's marketing budget is more than what ITV spends on making programmes.

And people really think that Virgin can seriously take on Sky for Pay TV content? Seriously? Its a war that Virgin can't win, against a competitor with deep pockets and almost 100% potential customer coverage of the UK compared to Virgin's....what, 53%?

Virgin are right to focus on delivering content. Loads of cable companies worldwide do that and many of them are doing just fine.
Content exactly that is what people are asking for. Where did you get 80 HD channels from I have never seen that figure mentioned?
