Sky went down this route because it's TV users have varying broadband connections , those on really slow ADSL lines would struggle with cloud recordings.
Or (also) because it is impossible to get rights holders to agree to cloud based PVRs?

I'd like to be proved wrong but I very much doubt Virgin has the clout to get agreement to that.
