Over time, yes, when everyone gets upgraded to TiVo by Virgin over the next 3 years or so.

As for Netflix, they (along with Hulu?) will have to contend with the maze of broadcasting rights over here, Netflix can't just show imports like say, NCIS, days in the UK days after being shown in the States due to existing broadcast contracts with FX/Five.
