Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 5.

Not sure if this should be in this thread (mod's please move it if need be) but just caught this on the BBC News App.

for those whose who have not seen this, it looks like good news for those who currently have Netflix. I am very seriously considering paying for Netflix (if I have to) when it comes to VM!!!

Lets hope the follow through on the movie idea!

Virgin just keeps getting better and better
Indeed they are and the way it is going even the old sourpusses on the dark side might just desert their posts sooner then we think.

I think some VM customers are missing the point why if paying for a VIP package would you want to pay extra for Netflix which basically is an other version of On Demand Services ?????

Have you compared the content on Netflix compared with what is on VM's On Demand service?

Yes have used it in the past but they lack new film releases etc not worth paying extra over above VIP price, personal choice but don't see many on VIP subcribing

What's this myth about Netflix not having latest releases?

The Hobbit which was in cinemas in December 2012 was available in July this year... Same with The Hunger Games and Seven Psychopaths. I'd say that's pretty new, how new do you want with all the other tv shows for £6 a month?

We were not that impressed when we had our 1 month free trial in July (and that was the US version) Certainly wouldn't subscribe on top of our VIP package
