Everyone only watches a small proportion of the regular channels; that's just the way it is. Comparing Premium channels to non-premium channels is like comparing Apples to Oranges.
We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. We've all been offered a package and we make a decision to accept the offer, or not - freedom of choice. I don't want to watch the so-called 'Female skewed' channels or reality channels. Its no odds to me why they are there or not there - they just are. I either accept the package or I don't.

I've made the point that there are alternatives. People switch their suppliers of telephone, gas, electricity, insurance etc. all the time. 'Customer Loyalty' is marketing-speak for a collection of mugs. If anybody thinks that half a dozen people complaining on a forum is going to suddenly make VM 'see the light', I've got some bad news for them (on top of the £3PM increase).

What will make suppliers take notice is the kind of thing that's happened to Tesco over the last few years - when people walk away and start to do business elsewhere.

I sincerely hope I haven't upset anyone by my comments, its not my intention - just my opinion, whilst there's still a bit of free speech left.
