It's been over three months since Virgin Media's CEO, Neil Berkett, outlined his plans for high definition on the cable network, and yet it still seems as if nothing's really happened.
It still has the goal of adding three or four new high definition channels to join lonely old BBC HD, according to a report at Tech Radar. Troubles with licensing are causing the delay.
Virgin Media customers can already get access to a wide variety of on-demand HD content, so it's not all bleak, but with Sky looking to enter the VOD business, and already having large number of HD channels, Virgin Media really needs to get moving if it is to compete.
