I remember Chad posting something earlier that cast doubt on an HD version of Boxnation any time soon. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the reasons why! Chad? Anybody?

Spiderplant has confirmed that any 'Christmas Freeze' would not prevent any contractual changes ie if any channels are due to be launched over the holidays, they will be.

I guess that must mean that the VM concept of a freeze in changes (unlike that of Sky) is to simply avoid any maintenance to the platform, as opposed to an all out freeze.

So which VM areas cannot receive Al Jazeera Arabic?
