Sorry if this has already been covered, but I've not been keeping up with changes at VM.
For the V6 and 360 TV customers are there now only two packs of entertainment channels available - the one that's pretty much Freeview, and the one with all the pay channels? |

You can still add some options onto Mix e.g. Children's channels and TNT etc, but the other Personal Picks have been withdrawn. But more channels have been added to Mix that when it first launched. |

All of these different legacy tiers and the current ones make it quite confusing: Player, Mix, Full House, Mixit, Maxit, Mega TV 😂 I'm kind of glad there are now only two being sold, but the site could be clearer. |

UKTV Channels will rebrand in Summer 2024, the move will see its current streaming service UKTV Play transition to U and UKTV's family of free-to-air channels will become U&Dave, U&DRAMA, U&YESTERDAY and U&W.
UKTV's pay channels Alibi, Gold and Eden will transition to U&alibi, U&GOLD, U&eden at a later date, uniting the full network under the U brand. https://rxtvinfo.com/2023/uktv-freev...ls-to-rebrand/ |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
U&W sounds like a trade union
Hopefully they u turn on these channels, I had double check when I read this. |

But if you consider the options sky sports- they only have NOWTV so can't see them being able to include the WWE network in their streaming service since its not that big? TNT- Warner streaming...seems lacking at the moment? Amazon Prime or Netflix may be options but theyve not made any steps into wrestling before. Disney- a possibility as they have the relationship with WWE as they own the network rights in thailand i think? so it has been built into Disney plus before. But with Disney + cost cutting and having no live channel in the UK anymore? |

I mean Sky Showcase is like a "best of" channel. I would have think If True Detective is moving from Sky Atlantic it would appear on Sky Witness. |

What i can't work is how they can add it On Demand, when Sky Showcase doesn't have its own Demand section. |

As well as E! and NBC News Now closing, Virgin are sending letters out saying that Lionsgate+ is closing on the 31st of January 2024.

Sky will removed it when the owners of Lionsgate+ closes it. |
Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
I suspect Lionsgate + was ultimately unsuccessful because they were not adding enough new material.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
The beginning of the end for many streamers I suspect.
Merry Christmas, OB! |

No, AppleTV+ has been adding material regularly. I quite like the streamer.

AMC's Shudder is niche enough to survive (as are other niche operatiors like Mubi, BFI, etc) but its mainstream Acorn service is probably better off as part of Now TV or Discovery+ or bundled with subscription TV services. Paramount is in a similar situation to Acorn. It has close ties to Sky so could end up being a membership level on Now and a tier on its owner's Pluto TV service. It will be more interesting to see what WBD does with its HBO content - will it licence it exclusively to Sky as now? Will it keep it in-house and launch it via its Discovery + streamer? Or will it licence it to Sky and add it to its own streamer? For the record, here's how much each leading streamer's parent company is valued at on the stock exchange. I'm pretty surprised at WBD and Comcast - I expected Disney to be ahead of Comcast and WBD to be worth a lot more. Apple $3.00 trillion Amazon $1.59 trillion Netflix $214.98 billion Comcast $176.82 billion Walt Disney $166.47 billion Warner Brothers Discovery $28.04 billion Paramount $10.01 billion AMC $1.21 billion |

Amazon adding adverts unless viewers pay a £2.99 a month premium to remove them.

https://deadline.com/2023/12/warner-...ia-1235679584/ Certain content may well be shared, Sky apparently have life Of series rights to House Of Dragon non exclusively , I suspect Sky will want to keep showing HBO documentaries & Warner Bros movie premieres aswell for example I'd prefer if they kept the Discovery+ name & 'upgraded' to MAX technology platform but they seem intent on this name unless threatened with Legal action like the Netherlands/Belgium. Max in France will stream Eurosport live for example https://variety.com/2023/tv/global/m...ry-1235755287/ ---------- Post added at 13:27 ---------- Previous post was at 13:27 ---------- Quote:

That's TV 2 starts on 3 January. I wonder if we will get it on Virgin?
I hope so as I enjoyed watching Black Mirror and other programmes over Christmas. |

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2023)
This thread should be renamed Going Soon From Virgin TV (2024)
With all the decent content and numerous channels, we've lost in the last year, will 2024 be nearing the end of Virgin TV as we've known it. Perhaps it would be wiser now for VM to concentrate OTT and Streaming Services with Broadband and relaunch its Stream service. |
