Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2009) - Page 55

nialli · 22-04-2009, 21:37

Two days after it's on FX - starts April 26th. Series will stack as its broadcast. They're also add season one to Virgin Central this month, but I believe only in SD. (I've put the press release from Virgin up on the VMHD blog.)

I think the FX HD announcement is quite significant. FX is owned by Murdoch's News Corp, which of course also controls Sky. Perhaps some Sky HD content, at least tv content, is not far behind??

They *are* available, but as premium channels. They're non-premium on Sky however.

I think that you mean Star Plus and Star News. Star Gold and Star One are not available on Virgin and if I remember rightly Media Boy has stated that Virgin are not interested at this time.

So simply put not for a while yet.

Update: History's HD Channels on Virgin Media.

I got the following from History in an email Today:

Quote:

Hi Media Boy,

Many thanks for your enquiry and interest in our Channels.

It is of course our interest to have all our Channels available with each of our providers and as such we are in active discussions with Virgin Media in relation to both Military and History HD.

We hope that our discussions will be successful, but in the meantime would suggest that you also express your desire to receive these Channels directly to Virgin Media.

Many thanks for your continued support and interest.
