Because that is not the way Virgin Media operate.

If you want to buy your own box, there are plenty of alternatives such as Freesat from Sky, Freesat, Freeview and YouView
Please, these services can't possibly put along side each other as they are inferior by comparison and so cannot be considered alternatives.

BT also don't allow you to hook up your own TV hardware, or have access to potential features not part of the official service
Please read what you quoted me saying here. I didn't say BT did allow adding own hardware. But I do believe that where new competition comes then the hardware battle will step up a gear and service activation will for sure.

Considering Virgin Media deployed a D3 overlay network several years ago, which required brand new CTMS hardware everywhere, then that is completely wrong.
Are you saying that a 20Mb downlink wasn't available without this when the maximum service offered was a 1Mb downlink service? and what's the deal with restricting uplink speeds even to this day. You make a poor argument with this comment.
