The older you get the wiser you end up. The term 'Upgrade' now usually means it's a downgrade. The V6 works, and what it does it does it well. Why would I change it when it's common knowledge the 360 is crap compared to the V6.

As for the carrot of Sky Atlantic. They can do one.

I sense VM are getting a bit frustrated with those that refuse to comply, given the amount of messages/emails about 360! I think there's some target they've missed.... Why downgrade, till you have to?

They seem to be downgrading boxes from V6, to 360, to Stream. How long before your 360 is out of date and you need to 'upgrade' to Stream? And Stream really is pointless, you don't need a VM box for that. Maybe they are gradually giving up on tv.

Having read a lot of reviews of the 360,the view seems to be that it if different and slightly better technically. However its also a "stopgap" and virgin will be moving to streaming service. Why anyone would bother with them then I don't understand, already just stream to my other TV . Question do you have to have virgin bb to have a V6 , I know you do for 360

Give it a few years and they'll be inviting subscribers to upgrade to a radiogram...

Yes, the connectivity requirements are identical between TV360 & V6.

It's the software & UI that differs.

Hi.

ITV 2, ITV 3 and ITV 4, all HD.
All display a line of pixels across the screen every minute or so.
Both the 360 and Stream exhibit the same pixel issue.
ITV X is OK.
App is Virgin TV Go.

Postcode LE4.

Thanks.
