As it is now VM have most of the watched tv channels and a good selection of HD in the TVXL pack,and also sky sports red button (on sky sports) which suits most people,plus ESPN included in XLTV, Sky and VM have two very different buisiness models to be honest i think VM do pretty well now.
Absolutely.

I'm not knocking Sky, as I've been with them for 16 or so years (I think), and haven't had any problems. On the other hand I've been with VM (or NTL as they were), for a similar amount of time. And during that time I have had many problems with their customer service (but that's another issue).

I have made the decision to move completely to VM, based on information from this thread, combined with the fact that I will save over £50 per month. And I will still have almost all of the channels I watch, with the option to add the sports package (for the F1 next year) for just another £7 per month.
