There is plenty of good content on TV at the moment, the last 10 years have produced some stunning shows, mostly filmed in HD.

They've always shown it. It's just one of ESPN's magazine programmes.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010)

NASCAR Now has nothing to do with the NASCAR rights, it's a show produced by ESPN (in America) which has always been shown over here.

As of yet there is no information on the NASCAR rights.

Or maybe upgrade 50 to 200 20 to say 50 and 10 to 25 with good upload speeds no need for price cuts then maybe remove stm but that more a wish

so why would virign need to worry about bt? they can produce speeds higher than bt will in 2012 and have the same speeds as bt if both ugprade at the same pace by 2020 ie 1gb connection nither with fibre or docsis could go higher with currently technologhy but by then there might be new stuff

there wants to be some new channles coming to XL only because with all these channels moving to be available on L tv as well as the free offers there is gonna be no need to have a XL subcription as everything will available on L TV especially if the prices are going up.

what VM need to remember is that its all nice to offer free channels to L TV and M TV customers but its no advantage to me who already pays for them infact im getting charged for channels other are getting for nothing !!!!!!
