As you well know, I’m referring to BBC1,2,3,4, ITV1,2,3,4, Channel 4, etc, NOT the FAST channels, which are of course linear. DTT is not the best description, because Ism also talking about the satellite and cable channels.

I doubt Freely is going anywhere it's basically Freeview and Freesat long term replacement.
I agree that Freely should survive, given that it also carries the apps.
