NOW TV is apparently doing really well sales wise, with cheap SKY Movies and access to SKY Atlantic being the 2 main selling points.
Until NOW TV has been fully milked, I can't see SKY Atlantic on any other platform.
I'm with you Dave, SKY Sports News HD and SKY News HD seem the most likely to launch on Virgin. I can't see SKY changing their stance on SKY Sports 3 & 4 HD. I think SKY might allow access to SKY Atlantic in the near future, as they enter into the last 2 years of their content deal with HBO. I can see SKY cashing in on SKY Atlantic to cover their outlay for the channel over the past 3 years.
In my humble opinion, I don't think SKY Atlantic will have a long term future.
