I've certainly enjoyed my ANA experiences, but those were in business class so I can't comment on economy (I can comment plenty on economy for United and Continental though lol).

This is a big difference from 747's, which on many carriers only have a shared screen at the front of each economy cabin.

This includes a selection of about a 100 differnt movies, tv channels, Games and music. The system allows you to pause and fast forward or rewind anything you like. Only problem with using this system is that if its being used by everyone at once, it can be very slow. This is included on Economy flights, althrough I don't think its been rolled out on all Virgin fleets yet.
