I'm not saying it will never arrive on a pay tv box however personally I can't see it happening anytime soon that said what do I know. This is just my personal opinion and I will happily admit I was wrong should it happen.
Amazon's business model simply doesn't make sense, they sell the Fire TV and Stick at a loss and make the money back on subs. They are great boxes though however they simply need to be on everything like Netflix that will drive subs more then anything. To amazon it doesn't matter if I watch Instant streaming on A fire TV or via Kodi they still get my money, not having it on all devices is illogical

Having said that if you want Amazon Instant Streaming there is no point in waiting for it to come to Virgin just get one of their Fire TV or Sticks then yo will realise how bad the apps are on Tivo.
