My point was that cable and satellite tv is not the same as it was 20 or so years ago, so overly high price hikes are not warranted any more unless streaming apps are included or more access to their content at the very least.
its very odd isn't it? Content is king. Virgin Media without owning any tv content themselves are in a bit of a pickle potentially. People can realistically just have freeview, Netflix, amazon prime for delivery and now tv for sky sports.

what can virgin media offer? 700 live channels very few watch?

Streaming companies need reliable income streams. Virgin Media need to make deals with them.
