Four years after this sale, Virgin Media will return to basic cable television probably this Autumn as a result of parent company Liberty Global being acquired by USH-based satellite provider Orbitel Media (also a majority owner of Grupo Asulcabo) a.k.a. DirecTV's biggest competitor (since Dish is based at Cheyenne).

Notes: in Geia, NBCUniversal is still owned by GE (now with 51%) and Vivendi (now with 49%), TWC and WMG are still owned by Time Warner, Foxtel is owned by Sky plc instead of News Corp, Mercury wasn't discontinued by Ford, Hummer, Saturn, Pontiac and Oldsmobile weren't closed by General Motors, Talbot wasn't shut down by PSA Peugeot Citroën, Renault-Nissan is the owner of both brands and not an alliance, Verizon was never related to Vodafone and DirecTV's acquisition by AT&T wasn't approved yet.
