WP8 = Windows Phone 8 a mobile Operating system.
Android is much more likely it has 57% of the mobile market in the UK and would be much more use to a larger percentage of VM subscribers.

I'm guessing it is movies & sports from the recent 1 year deal.

I think it's deceitful signing people up to an 18 months contract when one of the key features being advertised may be removed from the package within 2 months of the customer signing up. If it came totally out of the blue I'd understand however Virgin know exactly what is happening behind the scenes with ESPN.
Very poor from Virgin. To me it's not a million miles away from lying.

Just received the latest offers from Virgin. All references to ESPN have now been removed. Doesn't look like package prices are changing as a result of ESPN leaving XL.

But we have not got to August the 1st yet so its unwise to jump to kneejerk assumptions Chad.

Vikings exclusive to Lovefilm
Disney films added too. They are upping their game.
Sick of streaming it through the PS3 and having to move it to view in diff rooms.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 2.
I'm gonna go with Viacom channels added to TV Anywhere and possibly Sky Sports/Movies on the App.
If it was the android version they wouldn't of said to look at TV Anywhere, they'd probably of said that they have some TV Anywhere news.
Hopefully it's also a distraction for the launch of the remaining Viacoms, especially if TV Anywhere is having them, it would make sense!

please watch the language
Personally android is awesome now. Back when is was donut or eclair it wasn't good at all but after years of development it's so much further ahead than most other OSs.
