To be honest, you can't have a TV base of millions of customers and then launch a channel everyone likes.
BT Sport launched after the LGI takeover completed however no everyone likes that, so wouldn't think that 'justifies' anything in regards to their costs.

Ben i know you're trying to help but we've had two years of price increases above inflation.
2014 had basically no new channel launches
2015 so far has nothing new launching
We've got another ABOVE inflation price increase coming. BT sport is coming out of the XL package in 18 months lets be brutally honest.
I'm 29 years old so i'll take the "erm what about these" as a reasonable comment as i know what you're referring to. my mum as a 60 year old woman wouldnt nor would the majority of virgin media customers know what on earth youre talking about (most dont have tivo/or know about the apps folder)
1) pay extra money for spanish and channels from portugal
2) accept above inflation price increases without actual improvements
Fact is the price i was paying in 2013 was fair. Since then i've had sod all except for a few HD channels but had 4 price increases. So yeah a virgin media response of
"erm what about these"
then referring to some spanish channels in an odd little app tucked away on tivo isnt helpful. in fact its shocking that its being used as an excuse ?!??
