I know you have mentioned Shudder before but the other two are interesting - Starzplay have managed to get themselves across a variety of platforms (even on Rakuten TV) but Sky seems to have been a holdout for sometime - curious to see how whether that’s an app or whether Sky operate that via their own progressive download system.

And it’s been well reported that Sky & Amazon have had a lot of commercial differences preventing Prime landing on Q (Search, transactional content and the channels platform Amazon have) so if they have found some common ground, interesting to see where they have both ceded that ground and if it happens, whether this is reciprocated and gets Now TV onto the Fire TV platform?
