Virgin Media vs BT TV vs Sky Q: Which is the ultimate upgrade for your television?

However, if you want to binge some of the most talked-about dramas from the United States, including the likes of Little Big Lies, WestWorld, and Succession, you’ll need to be a little careful. All of these shows are exclusive to Sky Atlantic. This channel, which is also home to a number of exclusive Sky-produced shows like I Hate Suzie and Gangs Of London, is not available with Virgin Media – despite every other Sky-branded channel available with this supplier.

So, while you can stream Sky Max, Sky Showcase, Sky History, Sky Comedy, Sky Sports, and more on Virgin Media… you’ll never be able to get Sky Atlantic. So, if you want to watch the upcoming third season of the multi-award winning Succession …you’ll need to sign-up to contract-free streaming service NOW on a separate device. BT TV doesn’t support Sky Atlantic in its TV Guide, however, it does offer built-in support for NOW, which includes access to the channel. Of course, Sky Q and Sky Glass include Sky Atlantic by default.

The final question you need to ask yourself is whether you need a new TV …or whether you want a satellite dish drilled into the side of your home. Sky Glass is a new all-in-one 4K TV that brings the complete Sky Q experience over a Wi-Fi connection instead of a satellite dish. As well as redesigned software, hands-free voice control, and a few other tweaks… Sky Glass has all of the same channels and boxsets you’ll get with Sky Q, which is still available too. Prices for the custom-designed QLED TV start from £13 a month.
