We've just got to play the waiting game

Any idea whether there will be a complete overhaul of the UI on the non-Tivo boxes, or will it still be the current Liberate middle-ware?

Sky 3 is rebranding to 'Pick TV' on 28th as well

POP the TV Channel will close on Virgin Media at 6am on Monday on Virgin Channel 736.

I would like subscription HD Movie VOD (like Netflix) and 1080p box office Movie VOD (like VUDU) for new releases.

posting saying ' i would like xyz channel ' or similar is fine to a point ... but confirmed new content additions would be a whole lot better ...

gotta agree with earlier posts that VM have their head in the tivo sand bank and are not exactly trying hard on other fronts right now

roll on the official tivo launch and the finish of BB upgrades then we might get some actual new channel action in coming soon vol III

Well, VM aren't a one trick pony, they are bringing out more channels and more HD.

Sure TiVo is a high priority, but that won't be at the cost of "new" channels.

are you saying that VM your employers are a "multi trick pony"

... only kidding

if i actually think about what i watch and what i may watch then i probably have too many channels now i dont use ... cant think of any i desperately want although improving the PQ on the existing ones wouldnt go amiss (SD mostly but even ITV1 HD has a better PQ though FTA sat than through VM and even freeviewHD beats the VM PQ when watching the footy over the weekend)

horses for courses as tv viewing habits is and always will be a matter of personal taste so wont knock VM for not adding things that would require an extortionate fee but maybe VM will take the sky route in future and have packages of channels to pick n mix what each individual wants (but i doubt it

)
