Adding Sky Movies 1 to package.

I have got all the Sky Sports channels in but if I add Sky Movies 1 how much extra will I need to pay?

The Virgin Media web site only tell the price on if you want all of Sky Sports and Sky Movies in.

I think you have your answer. The only combination of Sports and Movies is the full collection. At £7 per month more than Sky Sports on its own, it's not too bad.

Yes that is what i would get rather then a stand alone Movie channel buying like that is very expensive if you have sky sports collection already.

Re: Adding Sky Movies 1 to package.

if you are out of contract you maybe able to get a deal to get the channels cheaper..

I managed to get all the movie channels (and in HD) for an extra £3 a month by agreeing to a new contract...

Re: Adding Sky Movies 1 to package.

I wanted the Sports channels and it seemed good value to have all the films as well. All or nothing seem to be the best two options.

Re: Adding Sky Movies 1 to package.

Its better to add all the movies rather than just 1 or 2 of them.

Do you be-grudge any company to make a profit, As they will have to charge what SKY say and then add a bit on top for themselves

Sky movies is far more expensive on VM than Sky.

You can get the full package for £16 on sky; £21.50 on VM

You can get pack 1 or 2 for £8 on Sky; £14.50 on VM

And the SD versions have Dolby digital 5.1 on Sky; you have to pay the extra £7 a month to get HD for DD 5.1 on VM

I do agree on VM making a profit on these, but the differences seem a little steep. That's why I use Lovefilm rather than Sky Movies. If VM charged the same price as Sky, I'd possibly take Sky movies pack 2 as well.
