I’m curious how an “aggregator of content” deviates from the bundling they’ve always done with linear channels.

If it goes to form minority content is unlikely to find itself available out of the generosity of the cable operator.

And Sky Sports Racing is certainly not in HD either.

You mean the Channel Guide didn't have the channel duplication that's been there for months?

This thread should be closed in favour of the 2019 one!

It also includes OTT, not just linear channels. The LG policy is to take content rather that launch its own channels, but I don't think they are adhering slavishly to the principle. For example, we do have the Virgin UHD channel, driven I think from the lack of available content elsewhere.

That's true - didn't notice that. I thought this one had been closed.
