I'm glad they do. I don't want my monthly subscription fee to be jumping up month after month to cover the cost of Virgin throwing money at new channels.

I believe Virgin are putting their customers first. They engage in long drawn out negotiations to deliver the right channels to us, at the right price. We have no proof whatsoever in regards to how much SKY wanted for SKY Atlantic, and how much Virgin offered for it.

I'd say Virgin are trying to grow their customer base. More customers means more money, which means Virgin have more funds available to negotiate deals to bring new channels to their platform.
I'm pretty frustrated that Premier Sports hasn't arrived yet. I am however convinced that as long as customers demand this channel Virgin will eventually get it at the right price.
