So for those who keep asking, we just put that question to the operator. A spokesperson for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a> responded: &#8220;<em>At this time there are no plans to make Stream available to non-VM customers.<\/em>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The only ray of hope here is their &#8220;<em>no plans<\/em>&#8221; language, since that phrase is easily one of the most used and abused in the PR arsenal. Plans can and often do change, frequently at short notice. On the other hand, we&#8217;re rapidly approaching two years post-launch and if they were going to open the platform up to more consumers, then it probably would have happened by now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadband ISP and TV provider Virgin Media (VMO2) has reiterated to ISPreview that it currently has &#8220;no plans&#8221; to make its relatively new Stream TV service available to consumers on other internet providers, which is despite Sky opting to make their equivalent Sky Stream product available to users on other ISPs since launch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30838,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[45,42,475],"class_list":["post-37122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-video-streaming","tag-iptv","tag-virgin-media"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/mastodon.social\/@ispreview\/111900678886645316","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
