Arthur The Spur Here, I Personally Believe, With My Experience With Sky Is That Don't Believe Them, I Was Qouted £300.00 Plus Insurance And Subscription. The Only Reason I Went To Cable Was That There Tv Drive (or Should I Say V+box Is Better)and Is Cheaper, Alright There Are A Few Hiccups.

Re: Sky+ To become Free? What about V+

Yeh, i thought the same thing...two days before "V-Day".


Will be interesting to see if the rumours are true, and if they are how "VM" will respond

Always has been free if you have two Premiums (or, at least, it has been that way for *ages*.........).


Still have to pay £10 if you don't have two Premiums though.

Re: Sky+ To become Free? What about V+

I wouldn't be suprised if it is true.

Sky are bricking it at the prospect of Virgin media becoming number 1,
With a broad spectrum of services, plus 50 Meg Broadband on trial and even 100 meg in the pipeline, nobody will be able to compete,

All Virgin need to do is secure some rights for some half decent programmes and sports events, and show them on their own 'Virgin Sports' and 'Virgin Movies' and 'Virgin HD' channels and sky are dead and buried......

Spot on.

Virgin Media need to secure some top content, and they must do it soon. When that starts to happen, the intelligent user will start to realise that there is now serious competition, and true value for money is not what's faster and cheaper.

Couple that with Virgin's customer savy products, and good quality support, Joe Punter will have all the choice he needs, from a brand he can trust.
