Hannibal ep1 On Demand before air on 7th May
As title says, Hannibal episode 1 is available via On Demand before the première date of Tuesday 7th May. Is this an error or a sign of a new policy?

I think I'm right in saying that on demand viewings count towards ratings if they're within 7 days of the air date? If that's right then I wonder if that's 7 days before as well as after?

Re: Hannibal ep1 On Demand before air on 7th May
They've been doing it with a fair bit of content recently , Vegas Episode 1 was aired before it started on Sky Atlantic as was The Following , the latest series of Touch was also available On Demand before it premiered on Sky One. Its a way of encouraging people to connect their Sky+HD boxes up to the Internet or in fact upgrade to Sky+HD also with that comes increased Sky Store revenue.

It claims that around 45,000 of its customers connected their set top box to home broadband every week from January to March 2013.

"We know that customers who use our connected TV services watch more of our programmes and really value it. That's why we're working hard to get even more Sky homes connected."

The latest move comes on the back of other Sky on demand successes. Game of Thrones has received 1.4 million hits for season one and two since the third series began airing in the UK on April 1.

That's great - I did think it would only be on demand early on Sky boxes but I can watch it today, two days earlier than the broadcast on SKY Living
