That is my vision, and it would be good from the point of view of my own system of viewing, if I could bookmark shows from all the major streaming services and have them showing on 'My Shows', thereby keeping track of where I am with all the series that I am following.

My needs are simple, but it seems that there are no content providers willing to give me what I want for the time being. I'm beginning to understand why so many VM employees are disillusioned with their parent company, Liberty Global, because VM seemed to interpret Malone's thinking accurately. If this is an example of their decision making, I'm completely underwhelmed.

I hope desperately that they have a re-think on this. What a miserable day this has turned out to be.

However, Den, this does not change anything as far as subscriptions to streaming services is concerned, so don't get the wrong idea of what I am saying here.

Any proof of this discontent? as strange my cloth ears have not heard anything.
