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?
Fair enough if your happy to wait , I guess we'll see or not.

VM are more likely to launch their own improved SVOD offering in the future in my opinion , I believe Liberty Global already have one in some of it's other European territories. The name My Prime rings a bell however I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Exactly Andrew , it's there to entice those who've so far for whatever reason abstained from pay tv , it's certainly not to cannibalise traditional pay tv subs.
