At the moment I've got 36 HD channels on my TiVo box but Sky have access to 55.
So even if VM manage to hit their 80 HD channel target I'd be willing to bet that Sky would have also expanded their HD line up to include way more than 80.
Let's face it, if they're unable to release 1 single mobile app on time, what are the chances of them being able to release another 44 HD channels in a timely manner?
That's a good point and VM have really been pushing TiVo this year which only leaves me even more dissapointed that the couldn't keep to the release schedule of the all singing & dancing iPad app!  |
i wouldnt expect sky goign much beyond 60-65 hd channels just now, astra 1n went into service oct-nov last year but it is only to provide addiotnal spot beam capicty and to allow the hsut down of astra 2d which is at the end of it life, astra 2f launches middle this year and astra 2e begining of next year once there in place you can expect sky and broadcaster to be expanding htere hd and 3d channels until then i wouldnt hold oyur breath on many sky hd channel launches virign could catch them up and then keep up with them there after if they can get the deals done quick enough when channesl are goign to launch
