Well who knows what the future might bring as there have been big surprises before.

I know that l rant and rave at the way VM run there channels, but l simply cannot understand the way they operate.

Customers are after certain channels, and the way they 'talk' over these channels makes me wonder are they seeking new customers or not.

Are they running a second rate company who doesn't want to increase revenue or do they just want to be a a stalemate . VM could give customers many channels especially Atlantic, but they will probably think customers won't pay extra, so we won't put extra channels on.

Customers cannot have it both ways, l would quite willingly pay extra per month to get extra channels, but since l have been with VM which is running from the Telewest days, you get told one thing by VM but it never happens.

I wish that VM would spend more money on channels and CS then all that advertisement rubbish that they deliver and put on billboards on main road adverts especially the A40.

When did I say '1 HD Channel' I posted 'A HD Channel'.

And also I confirm yesterday that none of the channels Set to launch are 'Sky' branded.

Basically it sounds like a rival to the Sky Go application. Cool!

Thanks for info.

As has been mentioned previously. I believe that the big shake up in channel content, could be whether ESPN remains in the XL package. imo

Has ESPN made a mistake again or is this just a typo again?

The channel will initially only be available to BSkyB's satellite TV customers, but is seeking wider distribution.

So will this be on Virgin before the 2014 Olympics?

Rio have the olympics in 2016 so plenty of time for VM to get sorted!

Anyone found any other sources of information on this? It really does sound 'cool' and a potential Sky Ipad app beater.
