HTC One isn't supported thats bs. Its one of the premiere Android phones available. Especially when the s3 mini is supported thats absolute rubbish in comparison.

so if the netflix roll out is now completed (?) or a day away at the most does that mean channel launches and rumours will now return to the forefront?!

i need some gossip and info to keep me occupied in work. i even miss the fox+ saga currently since there isnt anything rumoured to launch.....

Unless your either "sad" or "lucky" like me when you don't actually watch BT Sports.

One of my work colleagues mentioned netflix as an added VM benefit but as me and the wife have about a three hour nightly window to watch what we want (Rest of the waking/non-working day the remote is in the hands of my 5 year old grandaughter) then between live TV and on-demand our schedule is full anyway. Besides which can get it on my computer at the same base cost if I was desperate.

At the end of the day one of the major determining factors is the inviduals or families prefences. What I have is in line with my families requirements and at the best price I can get it for.

To the person calling me a liar in my inbox i'm not going to name and shame you but i'm going to post something here as people in this thread will confirm 70% of things i say are happening on VM do happen , here's some of the stuff i have posted.
I said FOX would drop to a lower package ok i said M+ but FOX did drop from XL to L pack so i still spoke truth.
I said SYFY would drop to M+ , SYFY did indeed drop to M+
I said FOX+ would launch on channel 199 , it launched on channel 199.
I also said the Chellomedia channels/cbs , horror would drop from XL to a lower pack , guess what? they have.
I said about broadband speeds getting increased , lo and behold the broadband speeds are being increased.
Do i get things wrong? Yes i'm not a Oracle and i only give information out that has been relayed to me so in future before calling anyone a liar you might want to look around , it saves you a lot of embarrasment.

Now a bit of news GINXTV are looking at launching a HD channel nothing is confirmed yet it's just chitchat at the moment.

I can understand your annoyance but things like this should really be kept to, and dealt with via private message rather than being aired in the main forum for everyone to see.

ginxtv in HD would be nice there SD channel pic not the best.

[theone2k10]

Minecraft tv to launch early 2014.
Surely my source is winding me up here or it'll be a online only channel?

What? Advertise something that is coming soon? This is Virgin Media we're talking about! I was told last weekend that I could now receive BT Sports. Nice of them to tell me, better late than never!

As I've said before, the missing Sky channels are unlikely to be announced in advance, they will suddenly appear and take everyone by surprise.

Has your source said anything about swapping HD channels with SD channels ?
(so 106 bbc three would be in HD and 163 would be in SD)

Nothings been said yet , VM/LG are still going through each package with a fine comb and more channels will be moving packages.
HD swap isn't on the agenda at the moment.
