I can see that article is new, but we've been able to do that for months.

I think the point which that article does not make well is that they no longer need to be tied down to wifi, they can be connected to 3G or 4G. http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2015/...s-subscribers/

You've been able to stream over 3G/4G for ages on the Sky apps.

New Channels update:

Media Boy HQ has today seen an update on the channels that Virgin Media are testing - but as Monday we cant reveal what we have seen yet.

But one of the tests has been given an real name of one of the channels we was hoping for on Sunday.

Due to this we now think we know what is testing but will keep it close to our heart for now.

Also the information we posted on Sunday is out of date.

Media Boy HQ has seen FOUR updated since Monday.

The channel that will launch soon is one of the following:

-Nick Jr. +1
-Comedy Central Extra +1
-5* +1
-MTV CLASSIC (Broadcasts in UPC Ireland areas right now).
-MTV LIVE
-MTV +1
-Spike TV (Channel to launch later this year on Freeview).
-History HD
-Nat Geo Wild HD
-CI HD
-Disney Channel HD

Virgin issued this press release yesterday:

Virgin Media puts Sky Sports on the go for Android users

Virgin Media customers with Sky Sports subscriptions can now use Android smartphones, tablets and laptops to access the Sky Sports app for the first time.

The app, which was previously only available for iOS devices, means sports fans can stream Sky Sports 1 to 5, Sky Sports F1 and Sky Sports News HQ live on Android devices wherever they have a 3G, 4G or WiFi connection in the UK.

Android users can also access Sky Sports’ in-depth coverage of breaking news across eight key sports – football, cricket, rugby union, rugby league, golf, tennis, F1 and boxing – as well as exclusive video content from the Sky Sports News HQ studio, including interviews and analysis of all the top stories.

As the only place to get every Sky Sports and BT Sport channel in a single TV subscription, including in HD, Virgin Media enables customers to watch all every televised Premier League match and all their favourite sporting events wherever they want – whether it’s on their TV, tablet, smartphone or laptop.

Scott Kewley, Director of Digital Entertainment at Virgin Media said: “The Sky Sports app for Android cements our position as the home of sports TV at home or on the move and means we now have a full complement of Android and iOS apps for both Sky Sports and Sky Movies. Our customers enjoy the same access to Sky Sports on the go as Sky customers

All Virgin Media TiVo® customers can also access Virgin TV Anywhere for free from their iOS or Android device allowing them to watch 103 channels live over WiFi and manage their TiVo boxes remotely from anywhere in the world using a 3G or 4G connection.

Customers who subscribe to Sky Movies and Sky Sports can enjoy up to 120 live channels on the go using Virgin TV Anywhere and the Sky Movies and Sky Sports apps and websites.

I don't understand that. 3g streaming through the sky sports app on android devices using a Virgin customer log in has been available for months.

I'm going to guess that its Nick Jr +1, the channel we are all missing the most
