Sky overestimate the prices that they believe they can get for their channels and remember it was Sky feeling the pain when it came to the Sky Basics fiasco as when the deal was eventually done Sky had to back down on the money they got from Virgin quite a bit.
On the issue of Disney and Universal HD l am sure they will come soon to the Virgin platform and you have to remember it takes longer for channels to come to Virgin because both companies have to agree a price.
