Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
I wonder when Virgin will go down the Sky route and start to offer an HD box as the only option?

"Information and pictures of Virgin Media's new Samsung 3110 V+ box have been leaked, with talk of MPEG4 compression."
"Although Virgin Media is promising three more HD channels in the coming months, this is not tied in with any hardware change with bandwidth available for the high-capacity channels."
