[QUOTE=jtaylor06;35282388]Depends on the customer's choice.
Sky can be better on the linear front, but Virgin certainly has an advantage with content delivery since they can host a on demand service without the download/buffer bit that Sky Anytime+ has.

An advantage with content delivery unless of course VM don't actually have the content you are wanting.

VM give the usual 'constantly negotiating with channel providers' response, except when it comes to the one channel the majority of people actually want - Sky Atlantic.

Also, in reply to another post, we can't all just go to Sky if we're not happy - those in rented property may not be allowed a Sky dish from their landlords and are left with VM as it's better than nothing.
