Have I missed much over the last few months on the coming soon thread, been concentrating on the football with Luton Town finally being promoted back to the promised land

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV 2014
finally the coming soon thread may have something...coming soon! let the fun and speculation start.
i think this time last year we had got onto about 3 different threads and so far we're still on the first!
it is a ridiculously large amount of potential channels. i'm having trouble even guessing them!

Also Skysports f1HD isn't on it.

Skysports F1HD is a big hole in my channel lineup. I really hope this comes...

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV 2014
While I'd love for there to be new channels, and I do enjoy the speculation, I just don't believe it.
The VirginMedia CEO publically stated the focus was now on Broadband and Netflix style services.
As for the posters who claim to know the channels coming, why not post the channel names?

Because they have NO idea, just like to pretend that they do. Look at the track records it is rubbish for the most part.

Broadband is certainly the focus, and this includes bringing us more streaming content to our TIVOs. However, this doesn't mean we won't be getting any more linear channels; far from it. But don't expect anywhere near as many as last year, which was truly phenominal and very much a catching up exercise as we were previously very seriously lagging behind Sky.

Interesting, referring to a company as 'we' usually means either a) you work for them or b) you are an enormous, irrational fanboy. Who would have guessed!

Re: Coming soon to Virgin TV 2014
I really hope we see an increased focus in the on demand content. Certainly looking at striking deals with content holders for shows that do not have a UK home. I personally think that the XL package needs improving (certainly if talk of Nat Geo and History going to L is true) and this could be the way to do it.

Seriously? You have to twist a perfectly innocent statement, just to try to have a dig at someone who's views you don't like? Seriously!!!

I interpreted that as meaning we, the customers of Virgin Media.
