Never said that I was. That was merely my own opinion.
I never listen to 'critics'. I always make my own mind up.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. II.
Tivo is awsome and i prefer giving my money to vm than sky but if they cant get the shows/Channels i want then i need to go elsewhere unfortunetly thats sky,I have friends who are currently on sky and are impressed with tivo but the sticking poin tis channnels and they are not alone.I currently have both so i can give a honest opinon,Phone,BB and best dvr is vm now with tivo,But for content(channels) sky is light years ahead and even thou vm can not/will not compete with them for that(and i dont blame them)there are still channels they can obtain.My fear that vmtv is gonna become like bt`s poor offering if they are not carefull

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. II.
I'm probably a bit late with this, but the video on the Tivo site has changed.
It seems to cover a few more features such as mobile recording.

Can you highlight which channels on Sky you think are a key advantage over those available on VM. Clearly ones VM do not have but just interested in which ones you feel make that difference to go to Sky?

So how will you make your own mind up on Sky Atlantic's first run shows, when you can't watch them via your TiVo?

Do you have any stats to prove who "the majority" are?

"Other options" are available...
Also, if the viewing figures on these first run shows are lower than an ITV3 repeat or a CBeebies show, that may be an indicator.
(Boardwalk Empire - 772k, Bluebloods - 517k; Doc Martin 823k & Charlie and Lola 539k)

Because I know the kind of shows that HBO have and, from what I have seen of them previously, they don't interest me at all.
