They could only have done that if Sky had told them when they were announcing, which I doubt very much they are inclined to do, and also if Virgin were ready to do so themselves i.e. they'd had confirmation from all technical teams with VM that the plan was in place.

It is bordering on the rediculous that people thought Britains second largest pay tv provider was not going to provide full coverage of Britains own Olympics

It was less than two weeks since Sky made their announcement, and 4 months since Virgin Media announced that TiVo would get full BBC coverage of the Olympics
So, I would say that it was those who already had certain views on Virgin Media that have seen a two week difference in announcements when there is still 4 months to go 'rediculous'. Most customers of either Virgin Media or Sky won't have even noticed
