Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.

What is the likelihood of any new additional channels in 2011?

I would expect VM to be getting the CBS channels and Sky Atlantic alteast, in 2011. Maybe ITV2/3/4 in hd also.

That's known/accepted; they're premium channels. That charge is levied by Sky anyway; VM have no control over it.

So a VM customer with Tivo pays £3 for Tivo and £7 for premium hd.

Yet £3 of that is just to use the EPG, Jesus christ people are paying £3 just have access to the EPG features,.............

You don't even get ITV2/3/4 in HD nore sky NEWS HD or Sky Atlantic HD or Sky sports 3 an 4 HD or NATGEO WILD hd. It a blatant ripoff.

You don't even get BBC iPlayer, ITV Player, 4oD or Demand5 despite the fact they're all free and you now have a video on demand service.

Yep, we're kinda crazy us VM Tivo people.

What the heck has the 3 pound tivo charge got to do with the 'free HD less chanels' on VM, versus 'more HD/channels but pay for HD' on Sky debate

I was looking onto the best way to post on the internet as part of Media Boy brand 5th birthday (On Tuesday July 19th).

And I found that it take me longer to post on my blogs then it do with the best Forum on the web - Cable Forum.

---------- Post added at 23:23 ---------- Previous post was at 23:15 ----------

Now on Cable Forum is the new thread called ''Coming Soon to Freeview'' for anyone who has got an Freeview TV Set or an Freeview box in an other room.
