Thanks for checking. So, instead of expanding Worldbox, it's being reduced!

I can't see it costing much to stream these channels from the internet. I wonder if VM have to pay carriage costs??

Yep. I thought that the TiVo had one extra tuner than the V+, but it hasn't. It just allows you to use the third for permanent recording.

I can't get Boxnation in HD, the PPV boxing on SKY Box Office is not in HD, can't get Spike TV which shows boxing plus I don't think Virgin have FOTV which shows 2 Golden Boy promotion events live each month for free. I'm not going to waste my breath mentioning the other SKY basic channel...
Film On TV has recently been removed from Freesat. Is it definitely still on Sky Chad?
