Maybe they just like to wind YOU upon the internet? Paranoid much ? Do you usually over think things? Omg they are watching you....you know they are...they're out there...looking...at...YOU

LOL, you could be right ;-)

You also say your VM insider has told VM are in talks..Still over a year later no news. Have you ever made a correct prediction? Nope!

I cant talk for Den but...

Me and Den can only go on what our insiders can or will tell us.

Here is the latest I got (As posted by me on Wednesday July 20th) http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post1221.html

VM should offer HD sound with there rental movies that would be something Sky doesn't.

Sky offer 5.1 Dolby Digital which is good enough for most.

Virgin Media may move Ailbi +1 next week.

I think with Ailbi HD launching on July 3rd on Virgin Channel 131 we may see Ailbi +1 moving to Channel 194 on Tuesday or Wednesday so that Virgin can tell viewers of the move ahead of July 3rd.

Just to let everyone know that Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2012) Vol. 3 will launch on July 2nd - only on Cable Forum.

Guardian Media: GMG Radio sold to Global for £50m.

Guardian Media Group sells radio business, including Real Radio and Smooth Radio networks, to Global Radio for estimated £50m.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012...old-global-50m

Media Boy thinks:
-Global Radio may axe Smooth Radio on Virgin Channel 916 and relaunch Chill or The Arrow on Digital TV.

This would be a nice one for Virgin Media to lure onto TiVo as an app. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...n-Britain.html

Any chance of this coming soon?

The answer to that is no.

Would never happen as Google TV is a TV service with its own set top box.
