Also most of the channels on sky are complete rubbish, and aren't worth having anyway.

If you can live without Sony Entertainment Television, ARY Qtv, ARY Oneworld, ARY Entertainment, ARY News, Sky Atlantic, CBS Action, CBS Drama, Bliss, Chart Show TV, Dance Nation TV, Flava, Kix!, POP, Pop Girl, Scuzz, The Vault, True Movies 2, Investigation Discovery, TLC, Absolute 90s, TCM 2, BET, MTV Classic, MTV Music, ZEE Café, Zing, NHK World HD, Russia Today, Movies4men, Movies4men2, Al Jazeera English, Fox News and France 24 you'll be fine with Virgin. I have left out all of the +1 channels and HD varients from this list plus all of the various religion and sales channels. These channels are perceived to be the "popular missing ones".
Also you can't yet get Premier Sports or BoxNation on Virgin.
If you are a fan of music TV you'll notice there are a few main music channels missing from Virgin's offering. Virgin offer music on demand, included in the XL package, which provides access to thousands and thousands of the latest and greatest music videos, concerts and even karaoke at the touch of a button. Also included are concerts and plenty of HD videos.
For me personally, if Virgin offered to carry the missing music channels, but in return would stop the music on demand service, I'd ask them not to provide the missing music channels.
