No, MM, there would be no loss to Virgin! As I said, VM could make it a stipulation that certain streaming services could only be accessed by subscribers to the XL pack (and if they are actually making money from Sky Movies and Sky Sports, to those too).

Considering that other providers are able to make Now TV available for a one off charge, following which subscribers can pay Now TV the monthly subscription, I really don't see why you think that Virgin would be at a financial disadvantage. On the contrary, they would be likely to gain more subscribers by offering this.
