I've often wondered what happens at the domestic end when such changes are made. I was watching 124 when GOLD was replaced with Paramount and a similar thing happened. I too had to switch away and back to get the new channel to work.

I do miss MTV classics though.

Get atlantic and get the amazon app on tivo and virgin media have actually done quite well. If they'd just reduce the amount of price increases per year...
Totally agree.

Apparently, Dave SD and GOLD SD are to be replaced by their HD variants only.

I think we can now assume that VM are moving towards the cessation of dual illumination of both formats. This helps to reduce the capacity needed and won't affect most customers who should now have an HD capable STB. Those without can still watch the programming an hour later on the SD +1 channels.
