I suppose you would only pay a cancellation fee if you are within a contract period. I think the Sky+ HD box is free with no set up fee if you take the HD pack and join online.
yes but most will be, it jsut shows people are so gullible including virgin that they let one channel be so important, i rather have food on my plate than care about tv, and i have seen plenty exmaples recently people goign nuts even when the nation as whole is in serious debt (thank god me and wife aint)

In the US, cable television network Adult Swim shares channel space with the Cartoon Network, broadcasting every night from 9pm to 6am.

It could just be a part time channel like BBC3.

They would not be able to do this as if you look at the tv listings of the channels said, they are all 24 hour channels on VM.

Toonami will not be back since it's not even in the US, but they will probably have a bit of anime like Bleach and FMA on AS like they do in america

They'll probably cut the hours since those channels don't have ads overnight

I'm with you but that's what it sounds like.
Well removed from the on demand and left on the red button, it's a bit odd.

yes but most will be, it jsut shows people are so gullible including virgin that they let one channel be so important, i rather have food on my plate than care about tv, and i have seen plenty exmaples recently people goign nuts even when the nation as whole is in serious debt (thank god me and wife aint)
It isn't people being gullible Andrew, if a channel is very important to you, ie you must have it then of course you are going to choose a provider that provides it.

My Dad won't have cable because he loves the Horse and Country channel he gets on Sky, it isn't even a pay channel but he loves it, I doubt he would bother having two STB's so he sticks with Sky. If all of a sudden it moved to VM I fancy he would too.

In this climate If you are going to pay for TV I would guess most people would choose a provider who provides exactly what they want. Just like I do now. My family need catch up from the networks so we have VM, that might change in future.

I am sorry but I don't understand why moving from VM to Sky is going to cause debt. I assume you think people should't get Tivo either because of debt too?

You are right we are both way off topic.

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

My box just froze again and just rebooted now all the old Bravo and challenge channels have gone.

Its a bit of a weird time to do it.Don't they normal do this sort of thing in the early hours.

Not challenge the other one.
