Well, Sky, like us, are waiting on Virgin to reveal the HD pricing (if there is any).
Drums fingers on desk.

Get a grip and take a step back...there are more important things in Life to get  about than the possibility of a lack of a red button service.....

There was never any mention of SS3 & 4 HD being offered to, or having to be offered to VM, so don't see what there is to have any angst about.

I think you need to read it again....and also remember that this is a Sky piece trying to sell you why it is best to stay with them rather than go elsewhere..
It doesn't say 'Sky Sports red button launches in 2011'....it says 'Some interactive services available from 2011' - which could be read as 'Not all interactive services available until 2011.
Sky are not going to sell the positives of Virgin....why would they tell Joe Public about how good the competition are?????

SS3 and SS4 HD were excluded from OFCOM's pay-TV investigation and therefore, were never (realistically) on the table for Virgin. Maybe in the future, but, not yet.
No real surprise regarding SSN HD either.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II
I hate $ky so much - but I dont like Virgin either for holding back on over 200 channels that could be on Virgin and yes some channels that $ky have are a waste of space but PEOPLE LIKE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT OTHERS DONT
I am paying around £50 for TV XL with HD when $ky are offereing at a simular price with lots more.
As soon as $ky get rid of £10 HD charge and call out fee to fix the box etc - Its goodbye Virgin and Hello $ky. Its real, Its damn real. And Im not Kurt Angle

Yes i have this feeling but the 200 channels that are on sky are mainly talkshows EG:
1 = I became a serial drug user because my parents did not love me
2 = I became disposed from reality because my parents did not love me
3 = i became a serial r*****t because my parents did not love me
Sorry about this but i am getting fed up about people getting on about the channels the SKY have got and the channels that VM have got.
PS not having a go at you ( but on various forums this is what you get )
