Well, if Atlantic coming will shut people up moaning then fine let it launch. But not for me, I won't watch it.

surely sky are losing money by not offering SA with the loss of advertisement money and the loss of a contract with VM. i still can't see people choosing sky over vm purely for one channel. i could be wrong. daft decision

Sky though are prepared to lose money keeping this channel to themselves as they see it as a driver of new subscribers and keeping the subscribers they have.

I honestly don't base my TV watching on viewing figures if I did I'd probably be dissapointed tuning into EastEnders.
Interesting fact is quite a few of Sky's shows on Living and Sky One don't get linear viewing figures of over a million despite showing more family orientated content and being available on multiple platforms.
