I must disagree about the TV package lagging severely. VM have all the "important" channels they can get, albeit some only in SD. The HD varients VM don't have (with the possible exception of Universal) all have connections with News Corp. and most likely exclusivity deals, due to Sky helping set them up. The missing sports will never come, unless Sky are forced and Atlantic probably will come one day in the future. I cannot think of much else VM is missing.
IF you decide VM are not for you in the future after the BT sports deal is concluded, and you join BT, I fear you will then find a company that is severely lagging behind VM, let alone Sky.
