Broadcast now are reporting that Sky Arts could possibly go free to air.

Probably because the ratings were pretty poor perhaps.

Never watched anything on Arts so ratings are fine by me.

It could be that. The same reason, perhaps, that Sky are making Sky Atlantic available to all major platforms next year.

Sky Arts was better when it was two channels. They are too focused on modern(ish) music these days.

l quite agree as it should be focussing more on what it used to do rather then going for a young modern audience..

Sky Atlantic will be on 'all major platforms' by 2019. Sky's words, not mine.

Really? This was discussed on here a little while ago. Sorry, just going away for a few days so no time to look it up now, but there is a link on an earlier thread.

Ah, here it is - wasn’t hard to find!

The question is of course how Sky define “major platforms”.

The crucial paragraph is below and is open to interpretation. I prefer Old Boy's more positive interpretation.
Quote:
Sky will make its NOW TV streaming service available on the BT TV set-top-box. As retail agent, BT will sell NOW TV on Sky’s behalf, offering BT TV customers access to Now TV’s most popular content including Sky Atlantic, Sky One, Sky Living, Sky Sports and Sky Cinema.
This agreement is a further step in Sky’s strategy to maximise distribution of key channel brands and to monetise its content investment further across all TV platforms. By adding Now TV to the heart of BT’s TV offering, Sky’s portfolio of TV entertainment brands will be available to all UK consumers through each major Pay-TV service, reaching new customers and expanding the appeal of our channels to advertisers.

Preference is all very well and good, I’d prefer to win the lottery than buy a ticket and not.

That paragraph makes it even more vague. Distribution of brands doesn’t necessarily mean “all brands”.
