I recon there will be a big rush when it happens, peeps who didnt have any box will want one fitted, peeps who just had broad band will want one fitted, and peeps who modded there original box will want a new one fitted lol.
Your joking right, the only thing i will miss is the football, then its back to streaming through a VM dodgy modem

No it wont - ok much of the cable chat will disappear, but there is a new site being merged into TW in the near future which will vastly expand the sat and technical sides of things.

Its no secret - details are in the site announcements section.

Think perhaps people need to get past the idea that Branson doesn't actually own or have any say in the day to day running of VM. He's just another shareholder, a minority one at that (although VirginMedia holdings is VM's 2nd biggest shareholder). Apart from his voting rights at the AGM etc he has absolutely no say at all !

If your gonna blame someone for VM's ill's then at least blame the correct person. Neill Birkett, CEO, will do for a start !
