We can confirmed that more channels are testing - but with no "real" names.
Media Boy HQ is not going to post the number of channels that are testing. Let just say "More to come".
All we are seeing is "V0--" anyway.
NOTE: Some info We posted on Sunday on both Cable Forum and Media Boy Blog may be out of date.

No information on if Spike TV will launch on Virgin Media.

Last I heard it will be on cable, satellite and Freeview (on Freeview only it will replace Viva).

Is there a Spike TV HD? Breaking Bad would look even better
They shouldn't bother with SD channels, everyone has a HD tv now, right??

I heard a guy saying he chucked his 39inch HD tv in the bin because he just got a new bigger one...He could have given this to someone who would use it to improve their tv viewing experience
This is what I kind of based my tongue-in-cheek comment about
If people are willing to shell out £1000s a year to Sky/VM, then as the technology with these companies improve, I'm sure the household technology moves too...a bit off topic, sorry lol
Looking forward to hearing about the other new channels as soon as MB as any more info.
