Re: Liberty global may take over itv
The point is that VM will now have its own content and it can build on these channels fairly easily.

Just because ITV 2 - 4 are currently free to air, that doesn't mean that they always will be. It was reported fairly recently that ITV were considering converting all channels complementary to the main ITV channel to subscription channels.

Whether or not ITV are still contemplating this I don't know, but new ownership could change everything.

I think it is significant also that if Liberty Global make this work, they will have the biggest commercial channel on Freeview, putting Sky's Pick TV into the shade.
