The way I see it:
if you want HD TV go to Sky,
if you want international channels go to Sky,
if you want programme information go to Sky

Virgin sort it out, people want HD channels, not just HD VOD, people want international channels and people want a service that works 24/!
i like european channels we need more IMO.

cable companies around the world carry international channels so IMO why should VM be any different.

Yeh, I would like to see international channels as well. German, Spanish, Italian and Polish would be good.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.

Of course majority of people do want International channels. We have a big asian community here more than any other community so the more asian channels we get the better. If Sky can carry so many of them I don't see why VM can't.

Re: Coming soon to Virgin Media 2008.

im not on about Indian channels. also Asia is Japan, China & Hong Kong etc it is only in the UK & Europe that ppl seem to think that its India. if you ask an American about Asia they wont say India. if you look on a map India is not part of Asia.

I think that you need a new atlas mate!

I would love some more European stuff, but can live without it too!
