Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. III.
ITV Player to start charging from January for some content.
Quote:
ITV will introduce micropayments for its ITV Player online TV service at the beginning of next year. The commercial TV broadcaster intends to launch a range of pay systems, says ITV chief executive Adam Crozier.
"Our pay mechanism will launch at the turn of the year, we have picked our partners," he says. "We are working on the consumer proposition, what people are prepared to pay for and what will work and won't work."

Not exactly a rumour. It was announced over a year ago.

Yes it is very welcome but Virgins customers want more channels as well and we have been waiting long enough.

I personally would prefer more VOD. I wouldn't say no to more channels though!
