Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
There is around 30-50% less channels provided on their IPTV services when compared to the normal linear service.

Sky Stream/Glass does NOT offer recording so you have to use Catch-Up and some programmes are not available. BT's version does record. Don't know about VM Stream.

BT's TV service is now also available without an aerial.

Virgin does a similar IPTV service to BT's called Stream which may work out cheape for some than its cable TV service. However, I believe it's currently for new broadband customers only.
