Plusnet sells these channels directly to the public so in effect it is acting as a wholesaler like VM. Except Plusnet is owned by BT!
ITV Encore and AMC are different from Sky Atlantic in that they're not owned by broadcasters and have simply taken a sum of money to be exclusive for a period of time.

Any news on ITV Encore anyone? Launched on 9 June 2014. If the period of Sky exclusitivity was for 18 months, it could conceivably launch on other platforms this December.
Not seen anything on itv encore as of yet nor have i seen anything new on history hd yet, ofcourse i will let you guys know if/when i get new information.

AMC is going to be on VM by the end of the year i don't know if HD version will though.
