Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.
Today I got a flyer posted to me promoting Picture Box free for Feb. The flyer is in the shape of a clapper board.
Does anyone know if its free for every package?

That's a nice little bonus. I'll give my parents the heads up.

Indeed it is a nice little bonus and perhaps a bigger one is yet to come.

1) Picturebox isn't changing in price
2) It's an add on subscription so the price changes aren't connected to it anyway.

You would have thought that but my next billing period which ends on Feb 25 shows as the same price as the last few months.

Picture Box have never tried this ,so I had a look. Amazed anyone would pay for it! Something for nothing is always most welcome let me say , however from the movies the site says are available in the next 4-5 weeks. It looks like a 99p bin in the local supermarket

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 1.
I tried Picture box when it was very first launched. The titles available were pretty poor and the HD versions were lacking 5.1 sound. For an extra £1 a month you can get Netflix, where nearly all titles are available in HD and a massive amount of those HD titles come with 5.1 audio. And the netflix selection is massive in comparison to Picturebox, both in film and TV titles.

Some people pay for inferior broadband services in the hope they will get the same speeds for half the money Itshim.
