I know that linear channels are normally added in the early hours of the morning, not sure about apps.

In the same way that Clubland TV is now fully utilising their EPG slot, I wonder why Netflix doesn't have a preview channel on channel 204 to entice customers or even show a freebie to drum up interest?

Maybe OTT broadcasters don't need a traditional broadcasting licence, so they can't??

Or perhaps VM would charge them for the extra bandwidth??

could be a sign the other 3 could be put on channel numbers


people with the V+ box can now watch clubland tv on 345
I remember when these channels were added, people complained to them that they were via an app.

On their Facebook page, the channel owner said that this was the only way that VM would allow them to be on the platform.

I never really swallowed this as I'm sure if they had paid enough money, they could have been added as linear channels.

Perhaps it was a case of them telling VM how much they could afford or be prepared to pay and VM said that an app based solution was the only option- allowing them to 'blame' VM.

I wonder if the new guy who says that he is to improve the TV side of VM had anything to do with this??
