VM does not carry the My5 app.
A limited selection of content is available via the Catch Up menu, branded as 'Channel 5'.
The future availability of the My5 app on VM may form part of the negotiations.

I have a Smart TV, but not everyone does. Some Smart TV's now no longer have a working My5 app.

Re: New VM carriage dispute regarding up to 30 channels.
As the negotiations are continuing, it looks to me like they've done the sensible thing and temporarily extended the old carriage agreement. They can't have come to an agreement or negotiations would have been completed and a new carriage agreement signed.

Re: New VM carriage dispute regarding up to 30 channels.
Or more likely it’s not worthy of an announcement on the weekend.
