As we were discussing pay HD channels both basic pay and premium pay it was natural to look at XL which is needed for all the basic HD channels.
Posters were mentioning a £10 HD charge on VM my viewpoint is VM already include the basic HD channels in its XL TV package , the Sky Sports/Movies HD charge is a completely separate charge which is currently £7 do you disagree with me and think this should increase on VM ?

No I don't disagree but they could increase it because HD sports is available to anyone on any pack unlike Sky, and I believe this charge is dictated by Sky themselves also.
What if Virgin say that you must have the XL pack now to qualify for HD sports movies then there would be a fair comparison with Sky, what would Virgin subscribers think about that?
