It does seem strange to me that Sky would be willing to continue to pour so much money into this channel and receive so little advertising and subscription revenue from the smaller audience it gets by confining the channel to Sky satellite viewers.
I assume, Media Boy, that your comment relates to the fact that you have had no news about Sky Atlantic (rather than anything definite you know of that VM will not be going for it or that Sky will be continuing to price us out of the market).
This is the only extra channel that I really would like to see on Virgin Media (because of its exclusive content), although additional HD channels would be good also. I am not so worried about the other channels on Sky as they are mainly low grade channels or channels that show repeats all the time.
As ever, as far as Sky Atlantic is concerned, I guess we'll see it when we see it!

An poster on AV Forum was posting that Information TV, Russia Today and Movies 4 Men plus NINE other channels was set launch on Virgin TV in March 2012.
