Talking of coming soon the only big thing on my wish list was sky sports Red Button as new content lies behind it previously denied to us sky sports subs via vm ! and it is coming very soon.and i shall be one very happy vm sub.
Agree fully mate , and the Sports red button will be a great addition.

I have credited VM on numerous occasions there TV lineup is not bad at all for £24.50.

Or does everyone on here already know that?
Defo correct , VM and the Satellite company have very different offerings , VM is HD free on XL and that Sat company charge 10.25 for a broader channel range , whichever suits the individuals need. VM are never going to offer the HD channel range that sat company do under their pricing structure people need to know that and accept it , many don't want all them channels and that's why VM is a great deal for them.
