Re: Liberty Global second quarter results.
Seems to have done well in all countries except Netherlands and Romania. From reading Liberty's document, it looks like a mobile launch is imminent in Ireland. I guess this will indicate whether that country will switch to VM branding or not.
Some more analysis here. http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2015/...y-performance/

Continuing to lose TV customers:

"But TV subscribers continue to fall in both the UK and Ireland, where it currently trades as UPC, down 19,400 in the second quarter."

Re: Liberty Global second quarter results.
Not at all surprised they're losing TV customers. A lot more competition than just Sky now.

Many more channels are launching their own versions of iPlayer. Once Discovery roll their's out in the UK* it's bye-bye VM TV package and the cost as most of the rest we watch is on Freeview or can be streamed/downloaded.
*Currently only in Nordic countries.

Are there implications for Discovery's on-demand service in the UK or is this just background info?

If you get a Now TV box or streaming stick, you could add the Sky and Fox channels to your new viewing arrangements for less than a tenner a month.
