Is that more because Warner owns a big chunk of the back catalogue of MGM, and not because of any current licensing deal?

They are meant to be content aggregators, after all !
Since when did a subscription streaming service come to a traditional UK pay-TV platform first? Never.

If it's viable, then no doubt Apple will spend the programming and negotiating effort to get it onto more platforms. But it's a global player so global platforms like Roku and Amazon are a more cost-effective route at the start than relatively smaller UK and regional platforms like VM and Sky.
