Very disappointing. Btw, likewise, Sky One.

We know the reason - loss of HBO content - but why did VM bother and then smother it in all the hype?
They are banking on the fact that people will still think it is the channel that it used to be and trying to use this to get people to move from the V6 to the 360, but V6 customerd can still watch it by casting Virgin TVGo to their TV.

Carriage costs have obviously been reduced to reflect what's happened, so now Virgin are prepared to pay them.
