Here's a question: Will SSN HD be available to customers not taking premium Sky Sports channels? Considering SSN SD is available to all on XL?
I would think Sky Sports News HD and Sky new HD will be in the XL pack as a minimum given its part of the basic channels they should go to m+ but we'll have to wait for an official announcement from VM 3HD, 4HD and F1HD will be added to the sky premium HD pack

This was interesting as well



Are these the apps Sky customers have access too ? If so don't you need a Sky ID unless VM are to issue them or are VM launching there own apps ?
I think that article is a bit wrong, i think they are refering to the tv anytime app, unless sky and vm are developing a app for vm customers, or as you said it's the Sky apps and they'll need a Skyid.

Base on info on DS Forum as of Friday only Three HD Channels are testing.

So if Virgin was also set to launch Sky Sports News HD and Sky News HD WHY did Virgin not start tests on the same day as the other three?
