Would they even be involved with negotiations with ESPN?

I am just guessing but it's more likely VM and ESPN cannot agree wholesale carriage terms under their own pricing structure.

As far as I can see ESPN are pretty platform neutral.

Maybe ESPNA HD will be on VM for the start for the Baseball Season - first week in April,
Now that would be good.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.

The real question should be:

Do you want these HD channels because there are programmes you really want to watch on them or is it just because Sky have them and you as a VM customer don't?
