Virgin TV is the second most popular UK pay TV service with over 3.6 million subscribers. It’s a cable service so you need to be in a cabled area in order to get it, but a recent survey showed that around 55% of UK households have potential access to the Virgin TV network. There are some excellent cable TV deals available from Virgin.
What Do I Need?
The V+ HD box is a Personal Video Recorder like the Sky+ Box, which enables pausing and rewinding of live TV as well as regular recording. Where Virgin have gone one step ahead of Sky is including three tuners in the box rather than two, meaning you can watch one channel and record two others at the same time because, let’s face it, good TV programmes are a bit like buses and usually come all at once.
Virgin offer their cable TV in three sizes - M, L and XL, and the V+ box can be added to any of them for recording and pausing live TV. Here are the details...
