It is odd that the old M pack is flagged, but not the newer Player pack.
Ahhh, so it looks like these tests aren't for any missing Sky channels. I think that there's only Sky Atlantic, Pick +1 and Sky One +1 missing now. Have I missed any wholly owned Sky channels? Wasn't there a travel and a poker channel too?

I am currently watching 'Good Behavior', which is entertaining. My wife loves it. These exclusives are in danger of being missed by many, tucked away as they are in the on demand section, so it was a good move on their part to add this to 'My Shows'! What I'd call an elegant solution.

They wouldn't want to cannibalise their existing cable subscriber base, but as you say, could recoup some expenditure from offering it to non VM customers, especially in areas not served by cable.
