Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

I'm not down to expecting everything on the cheap. I think BT themselves have maybe cheapened the product making it free. They could have gone about it in a different way with offers but when you give it for free, it can't be expected that others will offer a good price for it.
I would think that Virgin Media are looking at it this way. No way is anyone going to make any money out of it, not enough people will want to pay for it.

BT will not make BT Sport available on Virgin, because they will use it as a stick to beat Virgin and it's customers. I will not blackmailed into taking BT's rubbish services.

Den, what have I said before about dropping your "a"s

You should say "I am not a big boy"

And don't worry, I don't think any less of you

Arthur originally said he would leave by tomorrow if VM didn't have it by the time it launched. He's now giving it until the 17th. Are you actually going to jump ship Arthur?

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

BT rally kept on and on at me to try to get me to keep my BT Vision box so I could watch their new sport stuff. They didn't seem to think I want interested. I do have the you view box coming but promised I'd have a look at their app just to stop them going on about it.
