Not very impressed with our on demand selection really. Could do with more good quality stuff on there. Don't think we'll get it though.

They are missing a trick, because if cost is a problem, they could introduce the better programmes that are currently missing in a new premium pack. That means more money for VM.

True, although I do think I read somewhere that VM had decided not to add this because it was not of a good enough quality. I can't remember where I read it - don't think I dreamt it!
I was told that it was down to the cost and the fact that most of the content was/had been available elsewhere on the platform.

VM tried to offer a pay standalone VOD service when it first started, but the low take up meant that it was eventually put into the XL pack as an incentive for people to upgrade.
