Everyone is moving over to 1 super-headend (Langley), NGTV is part of that upgrade... also it's the start of the new encryption system (no more cable pirates!) and the start of the change over to ipTV.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)
I wonder if the new HD channel will be ESPN America HD. It's been unofficially confirmed by some European/Scandanavian providers but so far no news on UK carriage and no official announcement from ESPN.
