Maybe Tivo customers would be happy just to have Channel 0, especially if they like Wrestlemania!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
Before long VM WILL charge for HD, for the simple reason is they need revenue, and they cannot keep putting on channels without increasing prices.
If l was a businessman l would totally revamp VM, to keep on the backs of Sky, Sky is a major broadcastor and is making a mint out of there customers, but there again they have more channels than VM and can keep placing channels on the network.
VM don't do this, they will remove channels if they are not to there liking, the customer is the person that keeps companies rolling, so l don't know how VM are making money - a £1.00 increase here and there, won't make any money will it.

What's the point of making VM into another Sky re HD pricing? People have options now.
Personally, I'd rather have slightly fewer HD channels for free than a few more for a substantial extra charge.
I have HD multi room. From sky that adds just over £20 a month on to a bill; with VM, just over £6.
An extra £14 for a few extra HD channels? No thanks.

And there was I thinking of the time I had to rescue some crayons from down the back of a gas fire. You wouldn't believe the smell and the smoke.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
When a company makes money, its the customer that pays that money, VM need revenue to supply the channels.
I cannot see VM making any profit, on the charges it makes for everything they do, I am certain that VM have to pay for the HD content it gets from companies, I am sure there not getting these HD channels for nothing.
