2) uniform channels across all companies
3) One box only & Tivo is NOT the model favored.
All is subject to contracts of cause but these are the company aims.

That was my impression of what would happen when Liberty announced they were buying VM. Uniform branding and channels are relatively easy to do. Merged tech takes more effort.
But Liberty are also hoping, according to reports, to merge their Dutch and Belgium cablecos together, as a step towards merging all their European cable interests into one company. Although a sea of debt and tax issues appear to be the main reasons why this may not happen anytime soon.
