Is this an actual channel launch or via a red button?

On Sky, British Eurosport & British Eurosport HD are now showing on the EPG as Eurosport 1 & Eurosport 1 HD.
Has there been the same change on the VM EPG?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who hates those gimmicks den!
When was the last channel launch media boy? Since Virgin media are so determined to increase prices and speed up our broadband (I don't need more than 120mb stop increasing my broadband and putting my bills up) imagine if they offered us Netflix for free. I'd be instantly purring like a cat.

I wonder how much potential future content will be made available for other providers.

Bottom of that article states they have 'all time low levels of customer turnover', hardly surprising when all you have to do is cancel TV and almost immediately there's a 50% discount on offer in 'My Sky'.
Still, if it works for them who am i to complain about a great deal.
My 12 month contract is up with them in June and i'm quite happy to cancel payTV again if i don't get a good offer.
That TVPlayer Plus offering looks a cracking deal IMO.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
Seeing that l rarely watch those channels l would not have known that but it is still pretty pathetic in my opinion though but alas many others might think differently though.
