Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.

Not one single person on this thread will know the ins and outs of any talks Virgin and BT have had regarding these channels. They would be under a NDA in any case.

Unless I am wrong, neither side have made an announcement to explain why Virgin do not yet carry the channel -we all assume it is over price, but the truth is, we just dont know.

I agree Virgin could be a little better in communicating this to us all, but we do have to assume they are doing their very best for us, despite what we may think.

I am still sure we will get the channel in one form or another at some stage.

Sky even better deal. 1x sky+ HD box/1 x sky+HD 2TB box, including movies/sports and entertainment extra + all in HD with multiroom. All for £60 a month, (25% discount for 12 months). This is including the future price rises due in September.

All in getting BT and Sky for £105, while VIP was costing me £114. Trade off is guaranteed BT Sports and SKY Atlantic against slower broadband speed. With Virgin was getting about 90 Mb while BT advise I should get 65 Mb.
Thats actually not a bad deal - I am not looking to change provider, but the inclusion of movies in that price is a good one
