Is it available on Sky? If so, maybe you're right Andrew.

Other channels have been known to broadcast off the EPG for ages before being added though eg Hum Masala.

Re: VM Ireland.

I've seen a report that Irish TV are in trouble (no link was provided).

FOX News is a subscription channel on SKY part of their basic package, even online you need a tv provider log in to watch (usa one you do anyway).

Cheers, I had assumed that it would be FTA.

Are both the SD & HD versions encrypted?

No, it's just part of the basic Sky subscription package. What he meant was it's not free to air.

Can the best channel launch include apps? If so I reckon Amazon will win though.
