But since then, that particular comparison disappeared from Sky's own 'Sky vs Virgin' page while staying on Sky's own 'Sky vs BT' page. I would have thought that if we had a watered down version, Sky would still be drawing attention to the fact that we do not get the whole package and the fact that Sky are not doing that suggests to me that we may get the full package at some point in the future. It seems from posts on here that there are still some bugs and glitches at Virgin's end that need to be ironed out and we may get the full package when this has happened.

Having said that, we all know the way that Sky operate - but I will keep an open mind and keep reading about users' experiences on here. As I have said on previous posts, darts is the main reason I would consider getting the sports and I would want to be sure that I would be sure to get all that I was paying for before I hand any money over to Sky. As soon as I am satisfied that that is happening, Sky will have an additional subscriber. Until then, if I have to stream some stuff that I want to watch but that Sky have hidden behind the red button, I may as well carry on streaming the lot.
