If TiVo had a dynamic epg it would have to make a lot of calculations if a schedule changed regarding series links and suggestions. Saying that I would welcome it.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Sports HDs launch in the next few days, it would fit nice with the new Big Bundles launching, and Sirius is usually right, at least with BT Sport launching and the info about Virgin getting these sky sports HDs in the first place.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2014) Vol. 2
In other news, Disney and Sony have sold FilmFlex to Vubiquity. FilmFlex is a 30-person operation and Vubiquity employs 600 people. Doubtless this will impact positively on VM's on-demand offerings in the medium term.

Which is only a couple of days away....
Anyhow, we know they're coming... at least this time VM are letting us know in advance of what to expect. They have been accused B4 of not giving us enough info. quickly. This time they have and I'm grateful for it.

Sky's price reductions will be long-term won't they? MSE states "...from Friday 30 May, Sky is going to be cutting the price of TV and broadband packages."
It looks as if competition is intensifying in the market place as growth has declined and BT and TalkTalk are taking more aggressive stances. Can only be good news for consumers.

Maybe Virgin will hold some info back until after Friday then! I might be tempted if I was VM.

Well lets not get carried away as there is usually a catch somewhere down the line.
