Much to my surprise since being house bound most of my TV viewing has been streamed.

No, no, no - let me finish!

Not THOSE streaming channels, just the other unspecified ones that I had never differentiated before…

I watch the streamers and the Virgin On Demand selection. That is all. The FAST channels are not for me.

The reason it's being done is to act as a soft stick to those people who didn't take the carrot of having Sky Atlantic on the TV EPG.

In time I expect standalone and premium channels to be removed to force people to 'choose' the 360.
