Yeah, a bit pointless. Almost as pointless as the app being added I think it’s now the fourth (or fifth) device I can access an app I don’t subscribe to on!

Some viewers love the "new way" of watching via apps. But give me an TV Channel over an app any day of the week.

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

Over on the Sky forums, some of the folk with access to closed forums have indicated that’s looking like Peacock starts rolling out for Sky Q and Plus customers this Tuesday (16th November).

It appears that SKYQ customers are going to get another 12 months of Discovery+ for free.

I saw something about that, the source gave the impression it wasn't necessarily going to be for everyone, just select customers.

I hope that this doesn’t go with another exclusivity deal.

It sounds like Peacock content will be integrated into the On Demand libraries on Sky+HD , Sky Q and Now from tomorrow before launching later on Sky Glass so no mention of the standalone app being available at launch.

Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

There is a rumour Netflix no longer have the UK rights to Star Trek Discovery and will be on Paramount+ when it launches in January.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was true to be honest.
