Linear schedules are going nowhere because they serve a useful purpose. Anyone who hasn’t spent the last 10 years staking their reputation on their extinction can see that.
Going back onto the EPG as linear channels obviously didn't work out for them as the Pop channels will be closing down next month.

The Pop Player app and website, which combines content from Pop, Tiny Pop, and Pop Max, will remain available, as will streaming-only versions of the channels.
