You could make your own playlists on Youtube, or just use a music service such as Spotify. Both are available via Tivo. Amazon Prime has a lot of music with many pre curated play lists. It all depends how important pictures are to you.
I haven't watched a music channel for years; the adds drive me crazy.

Any link to that info DJ Switch?
We can't see that info anywhere.
As of November 23rd we have only seen info on "ClublandAkaChilledNow" being set to launch this coming Thursday.

as posted by ongman, channel 345 for now music only
So i think the rest will go like that
Chilled TV (channel 344)
Now Music (channel 345)
Clubland TV (channel 346)
Channel AKA (channel 347)
Its a lovely fit i think

As of today no channels are testing using the name Now Music TV.
One is testing using the name ClublandAKAChilledNow.
But it launch date of this coming Thursday has been called off until later date (Date TBC).
But we have been told that an new TiVo app Channel called Vevo will launch in mid December on Virgin UK Channel 344.
An new Asian channel will be available on TVAnywhere from November 25th. (Channel Name was not given).

More channels? phew! it's VM, so highly unlikely. Although the migration to MPEG-4 could release a few extra channels for channel bonding in the new cable modems. Obviously, that won't become clear until VM announce the full spec. of the newer CMs.

Agreed. Note, however, that this will be a streaming app, not a linear channel, which is likely to be the main means of increasing content on VM for the future.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2015) Vol. 2
In regards to changing to Mpeg4 does that mean the recording space will increase?
