If Sky Atlantic ever makes its way to Virgin then I'll be switching from Sky.

Virgin Media is a closed network so just because they are free to air on satellite does not make them free on Virgin.

True, but it doesn't equate to adding channels of value if you can get them FTA on another platform.

I've noticed Fox+ is on the TV Anywhere listings on channel 199 already
http://anywhere.virginmedia.com/tv-listings/ I remember them doing the same with ID +1 and Animal Planet HD before they launched. |

But it's helpful. Although I can get channels on Freeview that I cannot get on VM, it is a nuisance because I can't record them! I like to have all my programmes lined up in the recordings as I do not watch live TV as a rule, so turning over to Freeview and being confronted with all those commercials does my head in!

Horror Channel+1, CBS Reality+1 and Fox+ are being scanned by my DVB-C TV.
Edit: I've just realised they are all on the EPG pointing towards them being squeezed into 256 QAM frequencies freeing up bandwidth elsewhere. |

You could always invest in a Freeview PVR.
Happily, they are now making good the shortfall we've had previously, but they still have a little way to go. |
