BSkyB and Virgin dispute leaves millions of Brits without Lost

March 02nd, 2007 | Category: The Simpsons

So unless Virgin can work out deals to provide the same subject matter to their subscribers on another channel, the longer the dispute continues the more angry customers they’re going to have to deal with.

At that point, die-hard Simpsons fans are left with few choices. On Thursday BSkyB pulled its channels from Virgin’s cable television network as a aftereffect of a battle by subject matter fees.

The Sky One channel on Virgin is one of the cable provider’s most popular. iTunes and most other online video

stores that sell television episodes are only available to US customers.
