VM have signed a seperate deal, so I believe you will be unaffected for now.

Oh man! When were they going to tell us that? After I'd watered the garden, set up the BBQ and booked my outdoor concert tickets? Typical VM *!

I believe that some boxes can detect the extra planned channels but you can't see them because they're not in the EPG yet. Also, I get the impression that some posters in this thread are guinea pigs as part of VM test groups for various services and have early access to what's coming soon ...

I was talking to a VM engineer, and he told me that VM are not planning on anymore HD channels entering the network, for several more months yet.
