The virgin epg is still as bad as it's always been, I get fed up and give the control to somebody else after 2 minutes whenever i'm near one. | |

Indeed, Sky are currently upgrading their HD EPG. | |

That's being changed in the update EPG, has a small live tv box in the top corner then a 6 channel at a time, 2 hour view, or something similar | |

I know what you mean CorSRi, you mean have a small TV picture in the corner and a smaller but still complete TV guide on the screen at the same time, not just that shitty box at the bottom going through each channel 1 by 1 | |

I'm also not bothered if the SKY interface takes me 0.5 seconds longer to find a channel. Its the content thats most important. | |

It's £9 a month if you've got the sports package or £12 if you haven't. | |

VM will have ESPN for free this season aswell, so 40 odd extra prem games for nothing... | |

sky was the best i checked them all, infact if you wanna be arsed bt vision gives a full package for 19.57 pm in hd with free box and set up etc, only thing is the football is delayed, but you do have to have bt broadband for that | |

I went for Sky simply because if I wanted to add the Sports onto VM it was something rediculous (sp?) like £35 extra a month | |

Currently Sky offer more HD channels although VM are adding a load more towards the end of the year. Although with VM HD the box has an extra tuner, so record 2 channels whilst watching a third etc Plus you have VOD with VM. Although you have a better interface/menu system with Sky. | |

Sky by a country mile, something like 40 vs 8 HD channels. | |
