iTunes or Virgin 1?

Posted on May 10, 2008 | 2 comments |

So my wife's getting into Chuck on Virgin 1. It's also available on iTunes. However, neither is entirely satisfactory.

Virgin 1: 4:3, not widescreen; edits for violence; ad breaks
iTunes: fuzzier picture; £1.89 an episode

So should we go with iTunes for widescreen, all the content and greater convenience or Virgin 1, with a better picture and lower price?

    Anything that edits content(remember those awful edits for Angel on Channel 4 where one episode even got reduced by over 4 minutes!) is not worth my time and so iTunes would win straight away. Add into the equation the fact it's not in the format it was shot in means, again, iTunes for me.

    Then again, I find Chuck a bit shite so I'll give both a miss thanks.

    Good point. I'm not the greatest Chuck fan either.
