Good news for me in my capacity as a Virgin Media customer.
Virgin and BSkyB announced yesterday that they had settled their long running and much previously reported dispute about how much the cable company should pay the satellite firm in order to provide their customers with Sky's non-premium channels.
As previously reported, the price dispute led to Sky One, Sky News and Sky Sports News being pulled from the Virgin network. But the dispute has now been solved and those channels will return to Virgin later this month.
The deal will also mean both companies will end their lawsuits in relation to the dispute.
Although the dispute meant Virgin could not offer their customers some of the flagship new American shows carried by Sky One, it also meant Sky's advertising department lost a sizable chunk of its potential audience overnight, so there were reasons why both sides would want to find some sort of settlement.
