Virgin Media customers have been given two new channels this week, allowing users to watch even more fantastic shows without having to pay an extra penny.
According to reports, the upgrade affects Virgin Media (O2) customers using a TV 360, Stream (Flex) or v6 box.
The two new channels are Stingray Classica and Stingray DJAZZ, with these niche offerings airing classical music, opera and ballet performances, as well as jazz concerts, films and artist documentaries.
Stingray Classica can be found on channel 296, while Stingray DJAZZ is available to customers on channel 297.
Discussing the exciting change, VMO2’s TV and Entertainment boss David Bouchier said: “We’re always looking to offer our customers handpicked channels to broaden our offering, which is why we’ve added two more to the mix.
“From classical music to jazz concerts and artist interviews, the new channels offer something for all music fans to enjoy!”
This isn't the first time a company like Virgin Media has added new channels to its offering to keep customers happy.
Recently, Sky expanded its line-up on Sky Glass and Sky Stream to include more entertainment and factual programming at no extra cost.
Freeview has also expanded its programming over the last year, adding new children's, music and reality channels.
Major Sky TV service axed as refunds issued to customers
Recently, Sky made the decision to axe a short-lived service launched in 2023 that promised to change the way we watch television forever.
Sky Live allowed customers to take part in live fitness classes, interactive games and watch live events with their loved ones, all thanks to a handy motion-controlled camera.

Upon release, Sky praised the feature as a “clever entertainment device that will transform the way you use your TV.”
However, to get the gadget, customers would have to pay an extra £6 a month, something that appears to have killed the project off.
As of Thursday, December 4, the feature is no longer available, and customers are being automatically refunded up to £290.
