So yes channels can take longer but VM is sensible in no spending silly amounts of money.

People don't seem to think that Virgin have the wrong approach because they hang back, play hardball and get the channels eventually cheaper. Can any one tell me how this is different to me waiting then playing hardball over the phone to get services installed cheaper or for free??? my post from a couple of pages back wasn't meant to mean that there is a difference in what sky pay for channels and what virgin pay, it was a very sarcastic take on a bit of flaming i took from VM staff in another post, but whilst we are at it Virgins strategy on adding new HD channels is wrong,and unless they get the same content for TiVo that $ky are showing on their exclusive channels then they will lose. Remember when all your mates at school had addidas kick trainers and your mum got you puma?
