The channel has no On Demand content.
The on demand content is on Disney+, which Sky includes.

I am able to access Sky Atlantic should I want to watch it by using Virgin TVGo and casting it to my TV. Once Virgin have realised that the number of people persuaded to change to the 360 has been exhausted and once the TVGo workaround is well known, I believe that Sky Atlantic will be quietly added to the V6.

Alternatively Sky Atlantic is included with the Now TV/HBO max service at £3.99 per month
The 360 lacks some features of TiVo (which I believe are patented), but the 360 offers other features, which I dare say more people use.

You won’t find those TiVo features on other boxes either, so don’t see why you are slagging off Virgin.

Now will be losing Virgin customers who are either no longer interested in what Sky Atlantic has to offer or who can now access it via Virgin.
NOW will definitely lose subscribers. It’s only guaranteed to keep the existing HBO content for the life of the contract. HBO will have all the new stuff exclusive to them, like ‘The Pitt’.

Unless NOW think of ways to get new exclusive content, I can’t see it existing for much longer.
