Sky Pull the Plug

Y’all are following the spat between Virgin Media and Sky right? This morning, because Virgin wouldn’t pay what Sky wanted to carry some of it’s non-premium channels, the feed went dead. Virgin have got channel holders in place like “Old Sky Two” and so on, but my absolute favourite is the one for Sky News which now reads “Old Sky Snooze“. Childish? Sure. Amusing? Absolutely…

Interestingly, Virgin Media owns a number of TV channels itself – stuff like LivingTV, FTN, Bravo and Trouble. Have they pulled those from the Sky platform? Nah….
