Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009)
I don't THINK we need Sky1 HD Media Boy (although i would rather like to watch the final series of LOST in HD) i just think that's a reasonable scenario... i'd rather have Eurosport HD myself... any news on that BTW?? :p

I don't think VM holding out from Sky is a good idea myself. Offering Living HD to Sky gives them a bit of leverage to ask for one of Sky's HD channels.
Also VM doing what they are accusing Sky of doing is not going to help re:Ofcom!

Yes a fair point but it's going to look like childish tit-for-tat.
If i were on VM board i would recoomend they offer Living HD for exchange OR at a reasonable rate - that would make Sky look even more money grabbing and unreasonable! lol...

The site now has a schedule available, although it's not yet linked to. It can be viewed here: http://www.espn.co.uk/schedule/ (Info was found by Nook29)
ESPN 2 is just an idea I have as ESPN has now got too much live sports at the weekend for the one Non America sport channel.
