I can't help but notice that the picture quality on many of the smaller channels has deteriorated to the point that it's a bit like watching a fuzzy YouTube video,with the picture frequently breaking into fuzzy blocky squares and jerking about 'Max Headroom' style.

I still have a CRT tv,so I'm guessing that if I'd got a huge LCD tv that the picture would be completely unwatchable.

The HD channels are fine,but if I record an hour of HD onto my V+ box it uses 5 hours of space,which isn't ideal.

Is this poor picture quality now normal for Virgin,or is it just me?
