Much to my surprise since being house bound most of my TV viewing has been streamed.

Not THOSE streaming channels, just the other unspecified ones that I had never differentiated before…

I watch the streamers and the Virgin On Demand selection. That is all. The FAST channels are not for me.

And that’s relevant to your original post how?

The reason it's being done is to act as a soft stick to those people who didn't take the carrot of having Sky Atlantic on the TV EPG.

In time I expect standalone and premium channels to be removed to force people to 'choose' the 360.
