If you honestly think streaming is the future I'd invest in a decent streaming device instead of waiting for things that are never likely to happen.
How exactly does this mean that it's 'never likely to happen'?

I am making the point that if all available streaming services were made available on the one box, this would be a good USP for Virgin and save it's customers from having to have various additional boxes and memory sticks. Such a strategy would accord with Liberty Global's objective of maximising available content to it's customers.

While of course you and those who agree with you are entitled to your opinions, and I respect these, you haven't actually come up with an argument that scuppers my thinking on this.

If Virgin can invite Amazon onto it's platform, why not Sky?
