Re: COM 8 being wasted on part time channels
Well, to be fair Freeview wouldn't have decided that, QVC did.

The space may be available, but it isn't free and QVC must have thought buying 2 full channels would've been too expensive so launched these two as a timeshare.

For your other point, I agree but it is up to the broadcasters to launch channels on Freeview. The platform is good nowadays, so it justs the support of them really.
