It's free for non commercial use. I haven't looked into it, but I suspect that Virgin would have to pay a substantial amount of money to use it (IMDB is part of Amazon and Amazon is a business, after all).

IMDB is also not always that accurate and despite being originally from the UK (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imdb ), it does not carry UK TV listings.
