Re: Should the VM EPG be aligned with the Sky EPG?

It's actually produced by the same people who make the BFBS channels (The Services Sound and Vision Corporation).

Unfortunately, Sky wouldn't be able to align their EPG with that of VM as theirs is regulated.

However, it looks like your view is currently in the lead Doug, with approx 1/3 in favour of alignment and approx 2/3 against- with most reasons being given that the Sky EPG is in an even worse state than that of Virgin Media.

Thanks to everybody who has voted thus far, this data is very interesting. It appears that, before any alignment should be considered, the Sky EPG needs to be tidied up itself.

The last time the Department for Culture, Media and Sport produced a report on the EPG systems was 4 July 2012, so it is due a revisit.
