			Well let's get the record straight. Linear broadcast channels I believe will all but have disappeared by 2035.

Tata Sky (India) are adding Netflix , Amazon and Hotstar

			No point having Amazon on the V6 if it's going to cost more.

VM doesn't charge for Netflix - we pay our subscriptions directly to Netflix, not VM. So it would not make sense for BT to charge viewers separately for the 'privilege' of accessing it on their STB.

		| ITV is looking at buying a stake in UKTV, the broadcaster behind channels including Dave, Yesterday and Gold. 
 A report by The Telegraph indicates any deal would have to be done in the next fortnight.
 
 UKTV is currently a joint venture between the BBC's commercial arm, BBC Worldwide, and Discovery, following its takeover of original shareholder Scripps Networks.
 
 Under a clause in the original contract with Scripps, in the event Scripps sells to another company, BBC Worldwide has first refusal over the 50% stake it doesn't own. This 'right to buy' expires in the next fortnight.
 
 Earlier this month, The Guardian reported that the BBC and ITV, as well as Channel 4 are considering a service that would compete with Netflix. The Telegraph report implies that a potential BBC/ITV deal over UKTV could boost competition with Netflix.
 
 All parties have declined to comment on the reports.
