"Also on the to-do list is the ability to watch your own personal recordings stored on your TiVo box on your tablet or smartphone. Clever."
What HiFi where the first to have access to Virgin Anywhere and broke the story a couple of weeks ago. Whilst watching recordings won't be available from launch, it seems to be one of many updates we should see in 2013.

Okay I've done some more digging and I'm a little confused about the info to hand.
The Inquirer states:
"Virgin told us that it expects to have around 30 live channels available from launch across genres such as sports, kids, news and entertainment."
However T3.Com gives an alternative version:
"Boasting 2,000 hours of on-demand content across 30 channels"

The T3 article suggests there will be 2000 hours of content over 30 on demand channels plus linear channels too. This seems to make sense because Virgin do offer 30 channels of on demand material if you are on their top package:
1. BBC
2. ITV Net Player
3. 4 on Demand
4. US Boxsets
5. Warner TV
6. Aardman Animations
7. Comedy Central
8. CBS Reality
9. E! Entertainment
10. FX
11. CBS Action
12. Discovery
13. National Geographic
14. Bio
15. History
16. Crime & Investigation
17. PBS America
18. MTV
19. Extreme Sports Channel
20. ESPN Classic
21. Military History
22. CNBC
23. Baby Channel
24. SKY 1
25. SKY Living
26. SKY Arts
27. SKY News
28. SKY Movies
29. SKY Sports
30. Virgin Central
So what is really launching?
