I have a slight feeling Virgin may of held back the ITV HD channels themselves. If you think about it, launch a set of HD channels this Thursday, possibly some next Thursday, then the following Thursday you have the Sky Movies Disney HD Channel launching. Sweetens the deal for Easter. Not likely however. But maybe if Universal/E! HD etc were waiting for ITV to launch, if they can produce new channels on a weekly basis then customers are happy and start spreading the word.

Also, is PictureBox really struggling that much to gain subs? First we have had it free twice in 6 months and now it's half price!
