Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
£6.99 is the Standard price for the app across devices outside of any bundles.
I wouldn't rule out it being bundled in one of higher packages like Netflix.
It's possible they will expand the ad tier beyond the U.S this year.
You can get 1 Month Free Paramount+ at the moment with the code RABBITHOLE

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
Are Virgin in discussions with DAZN over getting the channel that has just launched on Sky?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
DAZN is aware of the clamour to get the channel onto Virgin Media, but no information yet it seems on VM’s intentions.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the app turned up soon, but not sure about the channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
They never seem to be in a hurry to get sports channels from launch, it was the same with BT Sport etc.
They're always late to the party, even if they do join the platform. It even took comments from MP's to spur them into action to get Premier Sport!

It's Sky which is late to the party on this occasion. VM has had it via the app for a while now. And Sky is an open platform so any company has a right to be on the EPG if it pays for it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
There's no way I will be paying for another sports channel, so no clamour here.
