That's the assumption everyone is making, yes

New iOS TV Anywhere app now available.

Red on very dark purple/black Virgin Media "Infinity" logo on startup, but no branding elsewhere. Typical "flat" interface, mostly white text on purple background - quite legible.

Don't see any operational changes - just cosmetic. It's version 3.02, implying its a completely new version, so may be other changes "under the hood".

I think it all depends on what Premier League rights BT acquires - if these reduce in 2016/17 then BT is unlikely to increase subscriptions in 2015/16. And we don't know the precise terms of BT's three-year deal with VM; VM may well get access to the Champions League 2015/16 coverage for no extra cost to it. Unlikely but possible.

There is not a hope in hell of that happening Andrew.

i'm actually quite confident we'll get the champions league for one year free in XL? VM have a contract with BT sport for 3 years in XL. Unless they create a new channel to shove champions league coverage on and charge VM customers access to that one channel on subscription? i can't see that happening as surely it'd be like sky sports 5 it justs part of the bundle VM have got a contract for??

I'm being optimistic for once instead of negative haha.

I guess it all depends whether they are likely to get more with individual VM subscriptions than with a wholesale deal in partnership with VM.

I will no longer be providing any rumours regarding virgin tv guys, reason being is i don't trust my sources that much now and i'm concentrating more now on streaming services.
I will ofcourse post any actual info i get from across the web and i will be posting streaming services rumours n info in the relevant threads.

Just got the new app and it looks nice. One strange thing is why they've left the old VM Union Jack logo on the actual app icon?
