VM is focusing on making a robust, high-capacity network that will allow subscribers to get whatever content they want, whenever they want it.
...And I agree with that. However, the plain fact is, I can't get Broadwalk Empire or any other of the Sky Atlantic shows on VOD! I will miss Mad Men when the new series comes out later this year, and I have been following this from the start.

So until I can access the content I want, then I want the Sky Atlantic channel please!
