It's not up to Sky or Virgin whether the +1 channels exist or not, but the channel providers.

So as they exist I would expect that they're part of any overall channel carriage agreement I.e. If Virgin want a popular channel, they may also have to carry a lower rated channel or +1 from the same provider.
