Well, ..."Well better than expected then?"<br />Well, my predictions were largely spot on! There was no announcement of price reductions, they mentioned the record levels of VOD usage rather than future IPTV plans and (just as I said) they made mention of launching Living HD.<br />They also said they would launch more HD channels "next year" which is almost as non-specific as "coming soon". Also, isn't the previously announced HD Food channel likely to be next year?<br />I'm glad both Virgin and Sky continue to ride out the recession with such encouraging results.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10390914211189703640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644371100807363751.post-89262930943436549852009-10-29T08:23:26.296+00:002009-10-29T08:23:26.296+00:00Well, better than expected then!!
