Hello,

Anybody know when us Virgin customers will get more HD? Still only got the BBC HD channel (which costs me £10 a month for the pleasure) Channel 4 has started its HD service on Sky but so far it hasnt shown up on Virgin.

I'm guessing they don't have the bandwidth for more HD broadcasts - maybe after they switch off analogue cable there will be more HD available.

I have samsung too, find that I enjoy the TV more with HD movies than the usual broadcasted stuff via virgin media. Now if only they increased the number of HD channels from 1....

which felt like a slap in the face after having paid for V+ box installation. I wish I had read the finer print a lot slower than I did.
Oh well, the kids get to catchup on all of their programmes that they miss due to school now.
