If 2016 is the year of the app/streaming channels, it could be surprisingly good! As long as the material isn't all reality and dumbed down rubbish. We need some quality stuff as well to attract the good kind of attention and appreciation from VM viewers.

Surprised to find the Arte app on my TV. I had heard a while ago that VM were in negotiations for this channel, I bet it was for the app as opposed to the linear channel.

oooh I can't wait, so much for lack of capacity, there seems to be unlimited for shopping channels.
However no sign of the several channels that are available on all other platforms but not VM (e.g Spike, Talking Pictures, Moviemix, Movies4men....)

Capacity is not an issue as proven by all the streams for the 2012 olympics. I guess QVC are paying to have their channels listed if it is indeed them.
It is being suggested MovieMix may soon be about to be replaced with True Crime

Well, they told AKA etc that they could only lauch via an app. It was either that or nothing, so there was some speculation that VM once again had capacity issues.
I guess the launch of these channels would prove that the reason they weren't allowed to launch linear channels had nothing to do with capacity. |
