It was reasonable to assume if the page was still up.
Time Warner kicked Nuts TV in the nuts about 2 years ago but it's still available via their website. The free box was offered until around 2009, it was a nice idea and a decent box, the EPG looked similar to our version.

You mean to say that your service is not affected but still you're complaining! What kind of a person are you? Get a life, trouble maker!  |
I think it's sensible to report it. If we only report things that affect us, it's selfish.

I'd imagine that is temporary until Sky can sell the channel (and its EPG slot on satellite) to someone else.
VM stated publicly that they have a fixed budget and target the resources where they think they can be stronger ie on demand and faster broadband. That doesn't mean excluding HD channels, as we've already seen, it just means things take longer - something we're used to on cable!
I'd imagine they'll be more of this shifting around on VM's epg to come with the demise of the Bravo channels, Sky 3 and possibly others. I'd expect to see Sky One much higher up VM's epg than what it currently is, for a start.

I don't agree, I think Sky 3 will morph into a "Free Weekend Pass" type channel to advertise Sky TV, especially on Freeview.

A bit petty Sky!

I was under the impression they stopped supplying a free STB for DTT ages ago, that list of channels is very outdated too.

But Sky ARE petty...

Picture seems fine here. But if it wasnt for your post I wouldn't have even known there was Premier League on ESPN tonight, I assumed it is a rearranged game. Thanks!

Matt, your mum isn't going to change your services over to Sky as I doubt she will want to pay more, especially since you complained for her to get the Sky HD channels for you a few months back...

Sky3 to rebrand as Pick TV
Sky3 and Sky3 +1 will rebrand as Pick TV and Pick TV +1 on the 28th February.
Programming is likely to remain the same as Sky3′s current lineup.
