Excellent news! Thanks for posting it.

Coupled with a pvr, +1 channels are very handy and there really is no reason to miss your favourite show anymore. All we need now is decent shows!

The Sony channel on VM is on too high of a EPG number, I can't remember its location on Sky. So, it's not just a matter of the US channels having their own channels here too, but their location on the EPGs as well.
