Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016) Vol 2
It is a major company, but they are a business and ARE out to make money like everyone else. They simply couldn't sustain spending more money while not increasing their profits.
So they loose a few existing customers but will take on new customers via the good offers they have, so it all balances out.
If you want more channels and new technology then you have to pay for it. Simple really.

Nope Movies 24 did show Christmas movies every weekend in July.
True Movies always launch True Christmas sometime in October - still trying it confirmed that time of posting.
We feel the following Christmas channels will launch this year.
October? - True Christmas
November 1st - Christmas 24
December 1st? - Christmas Gold (aka GOLD)
December 1st? - Christmas Food (aka Good Food)
All channels outwith Christmas 24 is still to be confirmed.

Sky have these channels. Do you have any particular reasons not to be able to subscribe to them?

You'd get a V HD box, rather than TiVo.
