So included in your price is all the above, You're getting fantastic value for money and you do get SS3 SS4 SSN SSF1 and you can enjoy those channels. You're not missing anything apart from a few pixels.

Sky chose to buy content, create content, invest in new channels, Virgin sold its channels to get more content in deal both sides were very happy with.

Virgin has achieved its goal of fast broadband, Sky has achieved its goal of great content. Its no good spitting your dummy out now. I'm not Anti VM my view like it or not is balanced and fair.
You are missing the point Telly.

I am a Sky customer, via Virgin which I prefer for the reasons you state. What I am saying is that the product I am buying, indirectly, from Sky is begining to seem a poor value purchase.

I am not throwing a dummy anywhere, I am considering spending my money in a different way.

As has been said previously, this is all bad news for the consumer.
