Youll need to point out direct anti virgin comments,Some users struggle when any none negative sky comment is made an go into a frenzy.

But try to find me saying virgin is crap, or virgin is unreliable or anything like that.Even the post you quote is not anti virgin. The reason virgin could drop from second place is the potential reach or talktalk and BT is bigger than virgins. Unless virgin start reselling Openreach products.

I think sky had more work to create them thn Virgin did streaming them all vm do is redistribute the Sky provided sat streams.

If you have frees at can you watch the Olympic channels for free? Yes

If you have Left virginmedia but still have a box can you watch the Olympic channels for free? NO

That's just fact no need to provide evidence but virginmedias increasing obvious desperation is becoming embarrassing.

I believe the first beta testers had TiVo in October 2009 frist retail customers February/March 2010 so that's not bad for 29 months. (Factually incorrect)

I believe its not as good as Sky's 2.5 million HD boxes in homes within 12 months of launch but still very very good.

This is the biggest back fire ever lOlollmao an convinces me virginmedia think the average customer is an idiot.
