Also most stuff you get sent a dvd through the post too.
BT is the one to watch once you leave them you have 30 days to download your content then it's gone for good.

Yes I did say that there is no way to watch it on the big screen
Whereas if you buy from Amazon, google etc they are still available on many other devices.
That bad from BT.

You can use chromecast just cast whole screen or if like me your pc is close to tv you can use a hdmi options are available but you'd think they'd have a app though, skystore does.
Yeah i left BT forgot to download 14 movies i bought within the 30 days and lost the lot.

I hope that really is an error and that it's not coming off VM.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2019)
I forget where I read it and who mentioned it (it may have been on the official VM forums) with regards to Yesterday returning to Catch-Up, so sorry I can't credit them or thank them for pointing it out, but when I looked to see myself I was surprised how much was there. More than Yesterday previously had before the UKTV dispute.
The only channel, on the BBC side of the UKTV split, not on Catch-Up is now Eden.
And I see Sky Catch-up seems to be HD-only now, certainly for those shows I looked at. It wasn't for the few NBCU channels ones I checked, so it's not a sweeping Comcast change... yet.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2019)
There's an additional HD channel showing on Tsid101/CO56 on DigitalBitRate, New Sans Nom PID1. It also seems to be a version of BBC1 and the V-PID is the same as the one I previously mentioned on that multiplex.
Based on JJ20X on Forumbox saying there's a lot of legacy local TV region variation stuff needing tidied up, brought onto one multiplex and the like, at least that's my interpretation of what they've said recently, then I don't think there's anything to get excited about. Though getting the network in tip top shape may lead to more interesting services in the future.

VM has now replaced the BT Sport 4K UHD logo with the new BT Sport Ultimate logo in the Guide, but they haven't yet updated TCM, TCM HD and TCM +1 to TCM Movies, TCM Movies HD and TCM Movies +1.

Let's hope some rebel in VM "forgets" to change the TCM one. Turner Classic Movies Movies is daft.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2019)
Comcast has now rebrand their UK Network of channels (Not own by Sky).
Movies 24, Universal Channel and E! is now own by "NBC Universal Global Networks UK Limited".
It was called "NBCUniversal International Networks".
