I agree with you but they are bound to want exclusives on their platform after all their TV is their flagship product.

Re: HD Channels you want on virgin media

Voted for the ITV channels, all the Sky channels along with Disney and Cartoon Network. I do fear some kind of increase in fees if we are successful though.

Re: HD Channels you want on virgin media

I wouldn't object to a price increase if it secured Sky Atlantic, the other channels I can make do without.

personally i would not object to a small rise to secure say another 6 HD channels ,but i would object to a price rise just to secure one extra channel that would probably be overpriced knowing sky,just my opinion though.
