Ah yes, that is true

Yes, the FAST channels will almost certainly carry on beyond 2035, but they are a poor reflection of the conventional channels, aren’t they?

When you click on the show, then the streamer (including Netflix), the streaming service will invariably remind you of where you left off last time.

Or maybe you just need to scribble some notes in a notepad...
I was responding to your remark about subscribing to channels I don’t want, but I have to if my wife has the same choice at her fingertips - and that she can understand - as she does now. Once Discovery+ (or whatever its successor is called) arrives, then what I need is complete. I am currently on a deal that I cannot get out of without penalty unti the New Year, so I am hoping that the streamer will arrive this year, as was highlighted would happen some months back. I don’t see any reason for a delay until Max arrives - I hope not.

Thank you for the information on the Roku Save list. I was unaware of that, and I didn’t notice it when I last used it (which must be a couple of years ago now). I will check that out to see whether that would work, but I don’t expect it will have profiles, which is what I use on the 360 to keep my list separate from that of the missus.
