That they are on the right lines is not in doubt.
I feel there problems are that they announce things way to soon. Hence "coming soon" can be years away. Think of
1) Red button
Really because of the rush to launch .Tivo they have in some ways scored an own goal just look at the complaints.They do not reflect well on the company. and the latest fix- I would have kept quite about that one. Again gets a lot of peoples backs up over nothing - in real terms.

2) higher speeds - stupidly offered as free ( hey we will put up the charges any way) this announcement should have been reversed- price rise first - lets be honest we all knew it was coming. Then increased speeds.( mine seems to be an year away - that`s if the time table is followed no faith on that score either, but then I don`t care happy with what I have )

3) What channels are coming - keep quite until you have them - stop saying we are in talks - that becomes Virgin are getting,x y or z in no time at all.
