 Thanks.
 
Any news on launch dates for them?
 
BBC did report that Big Centre TV was set to launch on Virgin Media by end of March.

			Saw advert for Spike channel on channel 5 last night. No mention of which platforms will be carrying it though. Looks like a decent channel to me.

 They are refering to tvplayer i think.
 
They will become unecrypted nearer to the launch.
