    I bet even when Lost, 24, BSG are on 'On Demand' the price will be 75p an episode, which compares very badly with getting the Sky channels for about £1 a month. Is VM looking to rip us off ?

    Virgin central in place of sky one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Virgin crapall more like it. we don't want repeats of series that are over a year old we want to watch the series we were all engrossed in before the greedy corporates decided they all want more money. get sky back or I switch.

    I support virgins stand against the bully boy at sky, was with sky way back when they forced bsb to sell out to them thought that was unfair . How can every one keep saying they will switch to sky does every one want no choice..even the mighty bbc has no punch when it comes to competing with sky over sports rights and murdock has his claws into itv network now as for channel 5 thats skys terrestrial set up.
    I say we should all take a stand against skys and murdocks global dominance....yes i will miss Lost , Battle star galactica, and sg1 even the endless reruns of the startrek series.But i want choice not one all mighty network telling me how to think, thought we ended that when the beeb lost its grip in the 70s.
    But on the note of service charge that virgin media is charging they should discount us for the loss of the channels or even better why does virgin not set up a rival for sky one...get the shows from fox and how ever else..yes murdock has shares in them..but not over all control. And also give us back the full free range we had on teleporter thought it was a nerve of virging to say virgin central was a replacement for sky one but you have to pay £5.00 per month extra to use it....come on virgin/ richard b your customers aint idiots and if you want to bring fairness to the market place start at home before you take on sky!

    Not happy with what virgin have done. We only have cable to get SKY ONE. Get your at together Virgin or we will go to the dish no matter how unsightly it looks.

    I didnt sign up for this, I wanted Sky. We should get a discount, and i should be allowed to break my contract and change to Sky, its only fair. Always problems the minute Virgin get there paws on something.
