Not mentioned there, but VM also get Eden HD, Good Food HD, Dave HD, Watch HD and Alibi HD (once they launch) as part of the deal.
Another great deal for Virginmedia (the sale of living and getting the sky channels being the other) an the gap between Sky and virgin is narrowing all the time.

Now I think Sky is going to have to start justifying the £10.25 HD charge. It was kind of ok 2 years ago but now Virginmedia have really caught up and give there customers HD and ESPN inclusive on the top package.

I would say the TV services are now equal as although sky has more channels most of it is fluff. VM now have 85% of all the quality channels and there HD versions.
