Maybe they would, but that doesn't mean I would agree with them. If I stopped paying them then I would no longer get them (well even if I pay I can't get them now). So for me that's an added extra, a bonus if you will, but not free.
It's like BOBOF, it's not one free it's two for half price.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
Don't know if this is just worded wrong by vm but I tweeted earlier about cancelling under contract this was my reply
@virginmedia: @Howardmicks No we can't as we've not yet finalised talks with BT! If we have any news we'll announce it here http://t.co/8cR2ealkr0. JA
Finalised????

Play nicely - others are allowed to have differing opinions on the value of some channels.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.
I have spoken with CS at 5pm, as we can nio longer get ESPN, although its part of the package we are on.
We have been told that they are still locked in talks and are NOT prepared to say anything else.
BT Sports starts tonight at 6pm, so it looks like we are not getting it.
VM are a disgrace for this, they tell you to contact there website and register your interest, but that is all they will say.
This is supposed to be a company with good customer relations - absolutely crap.

We can have differences of opinions but some get personal

Arthur, look up "perspective" or "sense of proportion" in the dictionary, please...
Millions dying of hunger and/or malaria is a disgrace, thousands of soldiers and hundreds of thousands of civilians dying in a pointless war is a disgrace, oil rigs blowing up and killing people and causing billions of pounds of pollution because of corner-cutting is a disgrace - losing a couple of TV channels is annoying, perhaps even frustrating.
ymmv.
