That is true. However it is no less circumstantial than some of the things said here regarding Sky.
An example that is not circumstantial is that VM owned channels were only in HD on VM before VM sold those channels.

Its a very good attempt by you Lex but l am afraid you are clutching at straws somewhat in your attempt to show that Virgin are were witholding channels when they had VMTV as l suspect Sky tried to get the channel on the cheap.

Love the logic. When VM is selling Sky want it on the cheap and when Sky is selling VM have to pay too much

Come on Lex you know as well as l do that Sky have a unhealthy influence on the TV market but of course your biasedness towards Sky won't allow you to see that.

I'm not being bias. I was pointing out facts that impact all industries including the TV market in which both Sky and VM are flexing their influence for market position.
The way some people post on here you would think VM are some kind of tiny operation. They are actually a huge organisation!

l try to make fair and unbiased posts and l have criticised Virgin plenty of times in the past as well you know but one suspects some memory loss on the part of some Sky posters on that score methinks.

No not biasedness but fair points about Skys unhealthy influence on the TV market but obviously that seems to have touched a nerve with the sky fanboys.
