Virgin Media have said they are working as hard as they can to get these great services out ASAP.

That has been the statement for months (well not Spotify), they are not going to say we hope to get the updates out as soon as we can be bothered are they.

Hi,
I may have jumped the gun on an announcement. Our operations team hasn't been able to brief all of our staff on the update just yet, so it would be unfair for me to announce dates when they aren't prepared to receive your calls.
We will be rolling out the software over the period of a week to all of our customers, and you will receive some sort of communication (e-mail, letter) to let you know when to expect your specific update and what to do once you've got it.
Will let you know more as soon as I can share it.
Thanks, and sorry to somewhat disappoint!

Yes the advanced search will come into its own when services like Lovefilm , Netflix , Sky Movies OD are added making it the best way possible to find the movies your after without having to search individually.

Have to admit the search facility is great , but it comes into its own when you can search tv channels , OD and online streaming services.

l remember the old Telewest boxes and when you look at them now they seem about a hundred years old and when you look at these new Tivo boxes it just makes watching tv so much more enjoyable and its only going to get better.
