Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 4

There was a discussion here about the commercial terms involved in pay on-demand services like Amazon Prime coming to VM. Some thought VM might get nothing out of the deal. This information about Netflix's entry into France is interesting.

It certainly suggests that companies like VM are likely to get a revenue cut for distributing Netflix in the UK and this will influence which services come to VM. Would VM also get a revenue cut of any advertising on on-demand services too?
