I do not know why Virgin are dropping History, Diva TV and Animal Planet +1's Channels for.
Just to note: Sci-Fi HD was on the list give to me by TWO insiders over the last two days.

Not AFAIK, no reason has been given as to why they are getting dropped, but if it means more HD, then that's ok! 
MB is spot on
