I think Sky could do quite well, actually, but they need to concentrate on quality. The Sky Atlantic stuff is rather good.

Better to who you ?????

It offers me linear Sport , News decent selection of shows and movies so to me it gets more use than Netflix.

You seem to struggle with the fact everyone likes different things.

I'm not convinced that you are actually looking at what is happening on the ground. TV channels like Disney channels are rapidly disappearing and many more will follow. How do you explain that, having regard to your TV channel obsession?

Have you actually looked at the linear offerings recently? Hardly anything worth watching, unless of course, your standards are a lot lower than mine.

The evidence is what is happening right in front of your eyes.

I accept that you cannot see this.

Disney+ is mainly kids' stuff but the Star brand is increasing content choice. It has a long way to go before adult content is at a sufficient level to attract adults. When they get there, they will give Netflix a run for their money. But they are not there yet.

Forget channels. Sky need to develop a new streamer and fill it with as many originals as they can put forward, supplemented by as much legacy stuff as they can muster.

I didn’t think an explanation of my posts was necessary. What I stated was pure common sense. Content is going one way, and I have difficulty understanding why you would dispute that.

Repeating the phrase “common sense” neither makes it common nor sense, and it’s definitely not a substitute for evidence.

My God, you are getting desperate to find anything to argue about these days, jfman! :D

SKY literally have 2 streaming services NOW and the upcoming SKY glass puc as a standalone. (3 if you include SKYGO)
I'm pretty sure they know a lot more than me and you about what they need to do.
Regarding NOWs ui i do agree it could be better.

The biggest issue I have with Now streaming and Sky Atlantic is the very limited availability of the HBO series. Thirty days after the end of a season and it's gone. Not competitive with the other streaming services on price either - an extra £5 a month for HD is a rip off
