Sky closed them to use the slots for Sky Atlantic and move/rename a few other sky channels.

I suspect it was more about Sky cost cutting than about slots. Providing the bare minimum necessary at the cheapest possible cost is the name of the game here !

Good deal, if your name is Rupert Murdoch !

Please get it right. It is Sky that have removed these channels not Virgin Media.

I get fed up with all the emotive terms used on this forum.
