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

Sky's original programming is horrendous that's why they buy in so much if it. I think the point raised about virgin selling uktv to sky and then sky launching their own channel exclusively straight after shows the nastiness of sky. Some may class it as good business strategy I call it ****. In industry this is fine but in a tv landscape with one company butchering creativity and destroying consumers choice by basically saying "you can have that or that but not both" something should be done

If I was a billionaire id launch my own channel and buy up as much as I could as exclusive content and then give it away to bt and virgin for free. And then sky trundled up my front path smugly asking for it id grab them by the balls and ask for the earth.
