Well said, I too missed the likes of Stargate at first but there are other ways of watching it, in the meantime anyone who has the XL package gets great content across the Discovery network, also the History channel and Nat-Geo, excellent channels with superb programing. As mentioned earlier VM have lost those who wanted Sky desperately so I for one hope they don't do a dopey deal whereby after getting back Sky basics VM bump up the cost of our subscriptions. At this point in time VM must have the upper hand, so don't cave in now VM.
