Ha, ha! Well, I'm with Virgin Media for a reason, so yes, this is my platform of choice.

I am not blind to the downsides though, and I do think that they need to make more effort to bring us the small number of additional channels that they know we want, together with more HD channels, and I also think they should get a move on with more VOD content and the video streaming that I have been talking about on and off for the last year or so.

But in my view, VM has a better future than Sky because cable is more compatible with VOD and streaming than satellite. Sky have done very well to get where they are and I don't hold back from recognising that, but I think the future is cable.

I do not deny you your pleasures, Telly Bear! Enjoy!
