AFAIK, deals are done for an average of three years. If this is the case, the contract for negotiation should be up in June 2016.

Something set to happen on Virgin Media?
Media Boy HQ has seen that Virgin Media has today updated their 'Customer News' page on V and V+ Boxes. But we cant view it at time of posting.
How do I find 'Customer News' on my box?
1) Press Home.
2) Go to 'Help'
3) Go to 'Customer News'
Also Media Boy HQ has been told that as of 5.30pm tonight no new channels are testing on Virgin Media.

Looked at the customer news page and all I can see at the bottom of the page it`s got 8 Channel news and 9 Barclays Premier League. It won`t let me go down to it and `click onto it` though

Yeah, a number of people from the Asian communities.
I do agree though, even if we exclude the content from other continents, there is still far too much rubbish on the telly. Perversely though, most of us continue to pay for this rubbish, thus perpetuating the problem. If it was not for the HD channels, I would have cancelled my tv package yonks ago.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 1
We pay for the rubbish to get the good stuff, that's why when iptv is finally flexible enough and technically smooth enough company's like VM will probably not be able to force you to subsidise loss making channels by forcing a package on you with 100 channels you will never even flick through, never mind watch.
