Very true however based on the model put out by BT today, and the total lack of any news about a deal with Virgin, I'm finding it more and more difficult to think what rabbit Virgin will pull out the hat.

People are getting the new channels for free from BT if they take £10.00 broadband and line rental. This deal is open to BT and SKY customers. BT are making the channel very cheap and accessible. Tucking BT Sports into the XL or VIP package is counter productive to BT's selling technique. Virgin would need to stick BT Sports in the M+ package or free with Virgins broadband to make it equally attractive.

No mention of Virgin Media though......probably "coming soon"
I suspect something is coming soon.

Noticed BT's Twitter page has plenty of virgin customers asking questions. Virgin have then tweeted:

"Hey there, why not head on over to here http://virg.in/BTSport and sign up for any updates. IP"
