There were changes at the end of November that should have dealt with that. Basically all that happened was that the substitute channel off-air slate, normally shown when a channel is off-air, was activate 24/7.

That's a really bad example. The purpose of ITV Encore was to attempt to create a new market for ITV drama and a new source of income. The experiment failed but it was flawed from the start. ITV have now moved on to an area where they already know a market exists. They have sold HD linear content at a premium for years, now they are trying to repeat this success with ITV Hub+.
