Re: Freely changes
Yes, it updates every month with Freeview plus some IPTV channels added in between. I think they gave up on the channel update listings, they were never completely accurate.

honestly it is just me being fussy. Years and years ago I used to play with guis for kodi and some of the add ons for it and one of which was a TV Guide called ivue which I modified and created a sky like guide and I just find the freely guide visually ugly and just clunky. It plays TV channels fine haha

Re: Freely changes
SkyNews on freely streams the non YouTube stream. Great that. Stream number 1303 currently on my Hisense tele.
The YouTube stream doesn't have ads, either they show world weather or snippets of reporting by journalists and also sport is replaced with more snippets.
Great that freely has the proper SkyNews feed.
The clock is present unlike on YouTube SkyNews.

Re: Freely changes
SkyNews are completely useless anyway.
Their site blocks me completely (because I'm using firefox).
