Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2

Although the TVL debate is very interesting, I have to ask what it has to do with the "coming soon - virgin tv" thread? Could you possibly take this discussion elsewhere?

It wouldn't be acceptable but isn't that exactly what they did with BT Sport Europe? At least with the likes of Sky Atlantic / ITV Encore, it would be adding entertainment channels to entertainment packages. Slightly more acceptable than cross-subsidising premium sports content from an entertainment package.

I'm pretty sure that Arthur would complain about any price increase however, going by his track record.
