I'm recording Prizefighter, I really can't watch it live. Far too much betting talk and Johnny Nelson. I can usually watch a Prizefighter within 1 hour by fast forwarding through all the chat, adverts, between rounds and post fight interviews. Not really a big fan of Prizefighter.
I am however really looking forward to the action from the States.

There is a dedicated thread for the discussion of all things Boxnation ;-)

After Sky treated me like they did 12 years ago, all personal and business contracts were allowed to expire following their refusal to make amends. This has resulted in a loss of business far outweighing the money they made by doing what they did. It now looks like they have finally realised this and have started sending me letter after letter urging (bordering on pleading) me to give them another chance. The last letter stated that Sky now has more on demand than VM, which confirms your suspicions.

I see where you're coming from, but the website may have been put there to try and stop people from leaving the VM platform if they thought that BT Sports would not be available. It may even ultimately be used to inform all those who signed up for it that BT Sports will not be coming to VM.
Having said that, I don't think that this will happen. This, however, is my opinion only, as BT Sport negotiations are said to be "extremely commercially sensitive" and measures have been put in place to "prevent unauthorised disclosure". I assumed this to mean that confidentiality agreements have been put in place etc.

This was discussed in this thread a few weeks ago. The general consenus was that VM had the rights to include the UKTV on demand material, but had chosen not to offer it.
The reasons put forward were that VM probably felt it pointless to pay for this inclusion, as most, if not all, of it was included anyway on the BBC iplayer.

Regarding +1 channels, the only reason why l was saying they are a waste of time, I spoke with CS and they said they dont have enough capacity on the network to take anymore channels, so bring the +1 channels on.

So, you are saying that CS told you that VM has no more space for any more channels (incorrect), so instead "bring on" +1 channels in this non existent space instead
Sometimes your posts make no sense at all.

I have them saved on my favourites still but can't access as they're not on my package anymore.
I thought perhaps Virgin Media were moving channels to lower packages in preparation for new ones but it appears not. Still baffled why they gave me 3 channels and took away quite quickly though lol

Testing purposes?
