But as it stands now Virgin have lost another point on the channel launches scale.
Maybe the rumours are true. They simply dont give a crap about Digital Tv anymore and are concentrating just on broadband. I mean Virgin Media has the best broadband on the planet yet they dont have the best Tv. Shows they are more interested in internet.

Negotiations for content are going on all of the time, we can't know for what or how they are progressing until an official announcement is made and this can't happen until agreements have been reached and contracts are signed.
The effort and investment that VM has put in over the past year and more to roll out NGTV and Nagra 3, design, develop and launch TiVo and announce future proposals for IPTV suggests that they are very much interested in Digital TV and indeed see the ability to provide integrated TV, broadband, telephone and mobile services as placing them in a unique position in the market.
Didn't I say all that somewhere on here already in the past few days?
Virgin Mobile will need to have iPhone & iPad for the TiVo app. though.
