It reads to me like Sky has basically moved all Sky Original shows to Sky Max and Showcase will basically be showing bits from all the other channels.
They don't mention Sky Replay but Sky Showcase sounds like Replay in concept, even though it's getting Sky 1's slot on Satellite. So maybe Replay is being axed? Pick is basically SkyReplay+1or2Years, so isn't really needed, so it makes sense to me.
They mention Sky Originals going to Sky Max but not what is happening to all the 3rd party imports like The Flash, Supergirl, Legends Of Tomorrow etc. Are they being rehomed or are they being cut loose?
Wednesday 1st September is the date given.

I wonder if VM will think "What's the point of Sky Showcase? We'd rather have Max and/or Atlantic".
If Showcase is going to show content from all Sky's channels, VM customers will get a selection of Atlantic content via it if Showcase is directly replacing Sky1.
Since this is all 2 months away presumably VM will know about this all already since it involves a service they carry ending.
