Nothing new, although theirs is a particularly good imitation.

I notice that L!fe's logo also rips off L!VE TV as well as Sky

I do wonder however if L!FE are somehow related to Sky/News Corp -- this is all too perfectly replicated to be a webprogrammer's rip-off job.

Edit 3: Apparently L!FE are owned by "News Media, Eng." Not sure what to read into that.
