Condolences to MB.

Some talk yesterday that ITV may be looking at HD versions of ITV2, 3 + 4 as part of their pay TV strategy: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010...ay-tv-strategy

Sounds good, sooner or later every channel will have a HD channel.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
Ah well, I was hoping that VM would launch the basic Sky HD channels in time for Sky Sports News HD. Guess we'll have to wait a few months then.

My condolences go to Media Boy.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
Interesting news about the VIP package. Never really considered getting it as always thought it was too expensive but then checked a bill (never really checked before due to laziness and its my mums bill) but am
Currently paying 92.69 which is fairly close to the VIP price a kind poster told me.

I'm more intrigued by getting the movies for an extra 5 quid to be honest than the hd channels. Been on virgin for 10
Years. Anyone think I should? What's everyones thoughts?

My package at the moment
Telephone line rental
Talk evenings and weekends
Talk mobile
Tv size xl
2 additional x boxes
V+ box
Broadband size xl
Paper bill
Premium channels: sky sports

You could sign up for e-billing and save yourself £1.50 a month for starters: https://ebill2.virginmedia.com/ebill2/Registration.jsf

The VIP pack would give you Sky Movies, Talk Anytime and Talk International extra - though the standard price only includes one extra box.

Another sneaky move by Sky, they have done this so VM customers don't get Soccer Saturday in HD.

I'd expect both soon as they are both Sky basic channels

It might be down the fact Sky won't let Virgin adverstise these channels when they signed an agreement recently for the hd channels

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
If we don't get SSN HD on the 23rd i'd expect it to launch at some point this year. Remember Five HD launched and there was no prior announcements from VM untill the day it went live so they may suprise us but i doubt it.

Really, I could have sworn they were just advertising that Sky was the only place to get all 5 Sky Sports HD channels, which is true...
