Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II

I was filling out a Questionaire in an e/mail from Virgin....I was redirected when finished to the..."We hear you" page and spotted this about HD.
HD channels

New HD channels launched


We're pleased to announce that we will be launching more HD channels shortly. We expect to have between 20 and 30 channels by the summer.

These new channels will be across a selection of genres, so hopefully there will be some great programmes in HD for everyone.

In addition, we continue to add more HD content to our On Demand service, including Catch Up TV which is free to all our TV customers.

This may be old News too some.

Oh no! What about my stock in White Star Line? At least we still have the Olympic and Britannic to outrun those Cunards!

Now who's this Hitler chappy and what did he die from.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2010) Vol. II

I think we can dispense with the 'here too's as we are all Virgin Media NGTV now.

That is, apart from the fact that I'm still missing two ex-Telewest radio channels and ex-Telewesters are still missing some ex-NTL channels.

Anyway, I have 'On Demand Preview' on 970 'here too' in Aylesbury. Your experience may differ.

Perhaps having a series of preview channels at the end of the epg creates a buffer between BBC1 and something else. Possibly the adult channels may be moved at some point as VM continue to rearrange their channels.

By the way, just noticed ch999 has a new welcome screen.

Yes it is relatively new as I saw it about 2 weeks ago. Better than the last imo.
