Beta launch of Virgin Media Player
Not sure if I should have put this in Internet or here, but VM have announced the launch of their previously confirmed online VoD service.

Quote:
Virgin Media has confirmed hundreds of hours of content for the beta trial including ITV, LIVING, Disney, Cartoon Network, National Geographic and, following a new agreement with MTV Networks UK & Ireland, a raft of MTV, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon shows. With programmes including South Park, Jersey Shore, Dora the Explorer, SpongeBob Squarepants and The Hills, MTV Networks’ channels offer some outstanding entertainment for all ages.
More info here.

http://www.virginmedia.com/player/ is currently saying "Coming Soon".

The trial will be open to Virgin Media XL customers who also have a broadband connection through the company and registration is now open at www.virginmedia.com/player.
Additionally, registered Virgin mobile pay monthly customers will be able to watch an hour of Virgin Media Player every day for no extra charge.

Re: Beta launch of Virgin Media Player
looks like nothing will be happening for a couple of days, a poster on DS has said they spoke to CS, there is a delay to 'iron out some technical glitches'

sounds about right!!

It is a glitch and nothing to get wound up about.
