Re: ITV threaten to blackout on Virgin

More on this in the Torygraph:-

ITV is threatening a blackout of its flagship channel in millions of homes unless cable operator Virgin Media hands over up to £80m a year, in a pivotal confrontation over dividing the spoils of the British television industry.

The pair have been locked in tense discussions since ITV issued Virgin Media with the demand over the summer. The broadcaster threatened to shut down the feed of its main channel to 3.8 million cable television homes last month.
I'm with VM no way should they be paying for Freeview channels. But they shouldn't be charging customers for the Player package, which is basically freeview.
