BT have a long term deal with HBO, it certainly runs at least until next year when Boardwalk Empire will be shown.

LoveFilm or the likes may well appear on Tivo but they already have FilmFlex so no doubt all manner of rights negotiations would have to take place.

Personally I suspect FilmFlex will be VM's sole PPV film provider for the foreseeable future.
Cindy has said that they are looking at adding services like Lovefilm and that having Filmflex wouldn't stop that. My guess is Amazon (Lovefilm) would love to get on there, or Google (they have a film/music streaming service coming in the UK).
