Sorry think I still have two  . Not moaning or complaining. I wonder how desperate people are that these offerings would generate so much glee
Markers for on demand watched part way, then I would get excited 
Or better still - no chance- BOX sets of ABC  Speaking of which - not really- any idea what these USB TV sticks ( all over the world types) really pick up. I am guessing its non encrypted satellite  How much "damage" would they inflict on services in UK as they seem to be cheap

They aren't that bad. There is the new Virgin Media Presents www.virginmediapresents.com which goes out as a weekly email which I'd expect to have details of all the current changes once they've actually all happened.
There is a sign up link coming shortly to allow people to sign up for it

I have to disagree BenMcr. Whilst, I am happy with the channel line up, the more choice we get, the happier I become. However, VM (in my eyes) are really poor with their comms.
Whilst it will be nice to have this newsletter, it does not mention anything about more4+1 launching. It also talks about celebrating the "arrival" of The Africa Channel, which turned up months ago. Which once again, was not highlighted anywhere (that I am aware of.)
Also I have had a quick look on the VM website, and there is nothing in customer news about more4+1 launching.
For me, it's a real shame VM do not highlight the changes/arrivals anywhere. I imagine there are a large number of BB customers (who don't have VM TV) who have Virginmedia.com as their home page, but are not aware of what improvements/changes (however large/minor) are happening the TV side of things.
Having said that, there is a high chance I have missed the news informing us of recent changes/arrivals.

The Virgin media presents is limited. My daughter who does not look at this site has no idea when /if new channels are added, it is good to here that VM are listening to customers with regard to information as it is in their own interest to ensure customers are aware of these changes.

You are correct there hasn't been an announcement yet, but as not all the changes have happened yet, it makes more sense to announce them all in one go, rather than a 'drip drip' approach.

Ginx.tv isn't on a UK satellite so it would cost more than most channels to carry, maybe they'll do an app.
