Re: Virgin Media Changelog

Do you know if this is permanent or just a promotion?

Re: Virgin Media Changelog

Seems odd to put Alibi HD at 200.

There needs to be a major reorganisation of the 100 group as it is crowded and a mess in places and there are still potential channels to be added, especially HD ones.

It probably wont get mentioned for a while, Virgin didnt tell anyone for about 2 weeks when MTV HD & Nick HD launched. Ben is VM Staff, and it is probably the most reliable on the entire forum.

Maybe they are. They moved Good Food & Eden to SD/+1/HD, which is different to the way they do other 3 channel blocks. Having the HD version on the end (or far away) means that if they do merge SD & HD, the +1 is on the next number.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog

Just noticed how bad the L Pack is now;

Sky Livingit (Sky Entertainment and TalkTalk £5 Boost)
Gold +1 (Sky Ent)
Comedy Central (Sky Ent)
Comedy Central +1 (Sky Ent)
E! (Sky Ent)
DMAX (Sky Ent)
True Entertainment (Freeview & Freesat)

Also stuff on the XL pack like Fox that are on Sky Ent or TalkTalk £10 channels, they really should sort them out.

Re: Virgin Media Changelog

It is up to VM how to package channels not ape competitors. They probably will amend the packs further so let's see...
