Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
You never know, Sky maybe willing to let their hd channels air on virgin now, they have a massive amount of current HD customers on their own platform, they could make money by selling them onto virgin now, and with the OFCOM hearing coming up, Sky may want to look like the good guys by offering them before that time.
I do think if it does happen we may have to pay for a HD Sub for those channels probably the £9.99 Sky customers currently pay.
I am not getting my hopes up but I don't think Sky HD is as far away as some people may think for us Cable users.

I'd rather Virgin hung on. The more HD channels Virgin get and include them for 'free' in the XL pack, the more chance that Sky will have to start thinking about dropping the £10 extra charge for the HD channels they provide. With no extra income coming in or rather an additional premium for the HD, they might be willing to offer some to Virgin like SS or Sky 1.

If you could have just 3 HD channels added to the current HD channels, what would they be?

According to Digiguide which is usually accurate there is way more than 3 hours. Just counted over 60 hours and gave up. (includes opening ceromony)
Some days over 5 hours each.
