They better sort it out quick, i'm not happy about not being able to watch Lost on sunday.
Bloody Rupert Murdoch being greedy and trying to squeeze out the opposition.

Apparently Sky have made there offer which Virgin wont accept because they "dont want to make their customers pay more for the service" and Virgin have said they have no plans to go back to the negotiating table... Dont know about anyone else but i wouldnt mind paying a `little` extra to be able to watch the shows i have loved for ages... just think no more Lost,24, Stargate, Bones, etc etc.

It wont be resolved now, Branson to make or buy other programmes to take the place of what he rented from Sky. Keen competition between them will only cause more problems in the future, look whats happened with broadband packages, sky leads the way Max-broadband only £10 per month.

Do you know what annoys me about this? Virgin have said they are going to use the money they save from this spat to develop other services for us.
Well hang on! I didnt ask for any other services. I just want the service I subscribed to and paid a contract for.
You dont walk into a clothes shop and buy a pair of jeans you like, and then the store clerk says 'well youve paid for it now ,but we are going to give you these 2nd hand pair of jeans instead ..... but dont worry we will give you a free T Shirt as well!'
Deliver the service I paid for Virgin!

Quick everyone call Virgin Media and say you are swapping to SKY because of this. The Richard Branson might pay the bill.
Is this what Rupert Murdoch wants - either RB to pay up or to get people to switch to his services.

Virgin/NTL have said a couple of days back on BBC news that they are intending to produce their own channels with the same type of content.
They did not say whether it was going to be in conjunction with sky channels though

I'm not prepared to wait. Without Sky 1, none of Virgin's TV is any use to me. I am moving to Sky & BT - NOW!

Fantastic customer service. Can't even get through to Virgin to cancel my service.
I only ever watch Sky One. Everything else is rubbish.

It will take ages as these things always do they don't care about the ones who pay to watch
