The picture quality is said to be one of the best with regards to the HD channels.

CNN SD is FTA, I don't know if the HD variant will be pay or not, but I doubt it (the tests are certainly FTA).

Does anyone know if this new channel is coming to VM?

Edit: Just found out that ITVBe HD and CITV HD are testing on satellite too.

We already have ITVBe HD anyway don't we, so I wonder if we will get CITV HD too?
With virgin media we never know. Channels can launch at start or with exclusive deals can take 3 years. It also comes down to new carriage deals and when they are due.

Sky has increased the cost for Sky Movies and Sky Sports to their customers including us, and unfortunately this means we’re having to pass on the increase to our customers too, from June 1st 2016.

Sadly this is what happens and it affect sky customers as well, I think on sky it's a £3.50 increase but i could be wrong on this
