Overall Virgin beats Sky both on price and the better all round quality of its package but with Sky dangling those offers for some l suspect it will be very tempting.

Cheers for spending the time to explain that for me.
Those might be good reasons for some to stick with VM, but not for me. 2 Years of on and off poor broadband experience with VM is my main reason for leaving. The nice little VM STB I had was replaced with a big one due to the small one not having enough memory to show the tv guide after midnight and AV sync issues.
I can see the Tivo/VOD is a big attraction for many customers. Never went for Tivo and with my network media streamer and tv having iPlayer/youtube etc VOD built in, not missed it.
Guess it comes down to what an individual wants/needs and sometimes budget. That and some people don't want the hassle of switching
