Will we buy packages i.e. Warner Bothers TV package, Discovery TV Package etc provided through an Amazon portal or even a Sky portal! Will VM just be a media delivery company hence the focus on broadband!
Most of those questions can be answered as any strategy for Virgin will be company confindential

One thing that has been said so far though is that Virgin do plan to migrate all it's customers over to TiVo within the next few years. How that is done hasn't been detailed

I would say though that considering TiVo is designed to record linear TV, Virgin won't be ditching that model anytime soon
