On the other hand, what would happen if Virgin signed carriage deals with channels such as ESPN America HD, SKY Atlantic HD, History HD etc.... in view of creating a new XXL HD package for an extra £5.00 per month on top of the current XL charge but the majority of their TV customers shun the new package as they are not prepared to pay more for TV. Who picks up the tab? Do Virgin just absorb this costly error, or do they put all of their prices up to cover the costs? I feel if Virgin start throwing money at channels, just for the sake of adding them, it'll be all customers who ultimately pay for them, not just the ones who actually receive them in their package.

An excellent point , a survey to see what customers actually want wouldn't go a miss once in a while.
