Unless it's not going to be available on TV Go for V6 Tivo customers. Trying to see what the reasoning might be. Is it technical reasons or is it licencing numbers(ie the more STBs that can receive it, the more VM have to pay).

From 1 April, Sky Atlantic will be available to all new and existing customers who already receive, or choose to add, Sky Entertainment channels with their package and have a Virgin TV Stream box or Virgin TV 360. All customers need to do to tune in to Sky Atlantic programming is visit channel 111 on the Virgin TV platform, with content also available on-demand and via Virgin TV Go.
So is on-demand and TV Go going to be available for V6 Tivo users? Not obvious either way. Does it refer to the TV 360 STB and exclude V6 even with TV 360 update?


Sky Atlantic is being cut down anyway. content is being moved over to HBO Max.

As part of the deal between Warner Bros. Discovery and Sky, HBO shows that have already been airing on Sky Atlantic – like The Last of Us, Euphoria, and The White Lotus – will continue to have their new seasons air on the channel simultaneously with HBO Max.
But that’s where the overlap ends.
New HBO shows that haven’t previously aired on Sky won’t automatically come to Sky Atlantic. And the full back catalogue – all those past seasons of Game of Thrones, Succession, The Wire, and the rest – lives on HBO Max, not on the channel.
