Indeed you are correct bud,I personally know that vm have been in active talks with sky for several months regarding missing channels and have been told on numerous occasions from a good source that talks have been very constructive.i do do believe however that whilst good for us the bt sports deal and now Netflix have caused delays in coming a mutual agreement to suit both parties my source is not aware of a signed deal as yet,however he still believes and hopes that we will see some sky channels in autumn,I am also still being told that there is still no confirmed date for Netflix launch or TiVo update and regards the android app that is nearing a launch date and I have been told we will see it before Xmas.
In respect of the sony deal no major info is about as yet just pure rumours and speciation however my source as told me that we may see an announcement just prior to ps4 launch but he expects just after,there are apparently major plans in the works regarding this in respect of broadband speeds and traffic management and packages and ps4.But only higher management know this info currently.
Whatever happens between now and Xmas this as been a very good and exciting year for vm and will certainly interesting what is in store for us next year,no more info on any amazon/lovefilm deal but from what I have been led to believe both parties are interested in a deal.
Any confirmed info I get to know out of respect to mb I will leave to him to announce,I hope this answers a few peeps questions and I'm am sorry I have not posted this info sooner.
One last thing I have reported to digital spy owners that horrible little trolls comments(you will all know who I refer to if you have been on digital forum) slating both this forum/staff and posters in particular mb,is resent comments are been both nasty and vindictive to say the very least and thankfully this particular poster is not welcome on this forum.
I wish you all a good weekend and let's hope we see some news/goodies over the next few weeks
