Not great news however July has been a good month for channel launches, and exclusive deals in the past. Hopefully July 2012 will be just as good.
July 2007 - Setanta Sports added to XL
July 2009 - ESPN added to XL
July 2009 - 4 HD, Living HD, FX HD, MTVN HD, National Geographic HD
July 2010 - 5 HD, Film 4HD
It's all just speculation however I wonder if Premier Sports will be added to XL in July, just like Setanta and ESPN previously. I also wonder if current deals with MTV and National Geographic, signed 3 years ago, are up for renewal which might allow Virgin to add Nat Geo Wild HD and MTV HD as part of any new deal.
