VM arn't part of youview for the same reason as the beeb etc demand VM use the same look and feel epg and VM are going over to tivo epg which is not acceptable.
Sky only interested in youview because it now has decided to allow pay to view content where up till now Sky have attacked it.
Unless Sky can do a deal with the beeb etc to store content on computers in the phone exchange and to use their own anytime epg then no catchup will appear due to Sky having to pay BT for data usage and it would cost them a fortune.
Anyway with Sky having spent 6 months trying to roll out anytime+ and still not having it on all boxes how do they think that they could do catchup any other way.......

Because he changed to Sky and is stuck with it for 12 months.
No TiVo and lack of VOD, he has to try to justify his move or he might spend the night in tears........
