Anyone know a free, online TV guide? - Page 2

i agree VM should sort it out, however with magazines its printed & more pages means more money in the cost of printing.

Quite. And whilst I understand the costs in that (environmentally, too), they could at least post them up online.

the-cable-guy · 13-05-2008, 23:29

true VM could well do it, but magazines on the other hand i doubt it cuz then they'd loose customers if you could find the info on their website.

Send me to that website, cable, please. What website will give me a list of all the Virgin programmes I can access and their programme numbers. Apparently I'm an XL customer, if that helps you in finding it.

It's not enough, though, they should have some sort of equivalent of Radio Times.

If only I'd copyrighted that!

theres Sky Magazine & even the short lived British Satellite Broadcasting had one but VM dont. hmm

Thanks for that link, cable. It's a start!

the-cable-guy · 14-05-2008, 02:00

yeah its better then nowt, if you click a channel it will tell you some of the programs that they air. its not a tv guide but it gives you a ruff idea if you didnt already know

I'm sure some able-connected person here could make a fortune by providing this online and even more if they were to do it in print. the inprint could be a problem, as it'd be like a book each week.

the-cable-guy · 14-05-2008, 02:07

TV Guide which is available in America lists almost (if not) every channel & while its not the largest magazine it sure is thick lol

Whicker · 14-05-2008, 02:13

My lolling hours are over, thank you for your help. Goodnight and good dreams, cable young guy!

the-cable-guy · 14-05-2008, 02:25
