You can only watch one at a time. And if you record another 5, then when are you going to find time to watch them (especially if you are watching Al Jazerra 24 hours a day)?

Well there is no point in ranting here about it. Call VM and rant to them. And then when they tell you that they won't customise their service just to suit you, then you can go to Sky and pay more.

there is no point ranting to virgin becuase they would not care about one of they many millions of customers.

this is after all a forum about expressing our own opinons about Virgin Media

I am not with sky because they have rubbish broadband and dissapointing video-on-demand

This is a independent forum? So if you want to rant about VM i would go over to the community forum to see if they will take notice of what you are saying?

No it isn't. Did you read the opening post?

If you want to rant in a forum, then go to the VM forum.

Then watch it on freeview or on line and stop complaining. I personally don't want to pay for another news channel just to please a few people.
