OMG someone spoke with common sense, Sky give VM

Sky-Living
Sky-One
Sky-News
Sky-Sports 1,2,3,4
Sky-Movies(all)
Sky-Living it

Virgin will not give Sky access to its broadband, its VOD service, it has TiVo exclusive...Sky may only give some channels in SD but thats like Virgin saying, Ok you can have access to out network but you're only getting upto 20Mb..But Virginmedia don't even do that.

Living was a VM channel; the one that Sky really wanted.

M8 since my super duper upgrade to superhub and TiVo I have barely had Internet access for a full week running, always down, on demand down too! Have been told it's a fault in the area that they are trying to sort but it's been about 3 months. Not happy paying over £100 pounds a month for a service I don't get for more than a week running. Apart from that all is well.
