It all depends on how highly VM think that a particular channel will bring in customers and regulations. Eg QVC pay to be on there, BBC1 is cost neauteral and they are forced to carry it, whilst they negotiate a price for channels like Sky 1. If they can't agree a price the channel does appear eg Sky Atlantic.

I'm assuming that the new ITV HD channel will come to VM at least.
