Yes, next year, VM will be streaming well ahead of Sky, BT and Talk Talk. This is the place to be, as it happens!

Yes, but from what we hear, that objection will be toast when the V6 comes out.
Virgin will be the only comprehensive provider of TV channels and streaming services, all in one box. That'a pretty good USP for most, I would suspect.
Techies aside, most people can't be doing with loads of boxes, streaming sticks, etc. This is an ideal solution for minimalists!
