Re: Virgin Media Changelog
 
Sky Glass and Sky Stream is the same platform - and is a cut down channel offering of their satellite service.

Sky Stream is very app based so I would expect it to be the app. So not a linear service on Sky.

Sky also do not offer a full UK version of Premier Sports 2 - which seems exclusive to VirginMedia. Doesn't even appear on the Premier app.
