I have a lovefilm by post subscription and can have the latest movies popped in the post pretty much on the day it is released, and long before they are on Sky Premiere. For £5.99 a month it is fantastic value and is miles ahead of Sky Movies. The quality of the Blurays make the Sky movies HD offering look even more pathetic. They also have plenty of older Sky atlantic content too, if that appeals to anyone.

Even if VM do not add Netflix to XL (I think they will, following the e-mail questionnaire and theones post) I will still be paying less than £15 for access to pretty much any TV show and/or film I care to watch. I may have to wait (at most) a couple of days for dvds from lovefilm, but I think it is well worth it.

If an Amazon prime app comes to VM as well, the content available for at most £20 a month will be staggering.
You hit the nail on the head i use Netflix with a vpn and Hulu plus and am paying less than £15 for everything i need. Come next month i'll get Beinsport which is only £7p/m and will give me every match that's on Sky n BT aswell as tennis f1 and rugby.
