Lol, I've got radios, it's the reminder function that I found useful. It meant that I could watch live TV, watch recordings or listen to other radio stations and have selected Radio 4 programmes interrupt this (my V+ won't record radio programmes).

Across all industries, migrating customers from old to new technology usually takes this form in my experience:
- Exclusively introduce extra services on the new technology at no extra cost over and above what it costs to obtain the new service.
- Start running down the old service by taking away bits of it's functionality (by necessity or otherwise).
- Introduce offers to incentivise customers to change over.
- Start to remove large chunks of what is available on the old technology.
- If all the above hasn't worked, send them a letter stating that their service will cease on a given date and emphasise the offers available to change over.
- Repeat the last action a few times in the run up to the closure of the service.
- Close the service to the few remaining customers on the due date.
It looks to me that the next stage for VM will be stage four.

Looks like stage 4 could be here already:
