Let’s be honest here, the Pluto app is hardly a gamechanger

Unless you want to watch a random episode of Home Under the Hammer, Inspector Gadget, FailArmy or cats n dugs there ain’t much on it and it cannot even be recorded, you can only see now and next.

It’s just a mush of random rubbish

I never said it was a game changer, I never passed any judgement on its content.

I was simply saying it was announced it was coming already. It's likely it will have an information slate and EPG position like Youtube/Netflix/AmazonPrime/Hulu do, and it's also likely to take an existing Viacom-occupied slot to do so.

Absolutely, I never implied you did, I just stated it’s not a gamechanher by any means.
It has plenty of content (albeit not quality ) just a poor interface

I’m sure it will progress over time.

When I looked at it on Roku it looked like the VM TV EPG with a different colour and channel listing. It was frustratingly slow though, it discouraged much exploring. Probably better on newer Rokus though.

Very quick on nvidia shield but clunky on firetv, they are rolling out a update for older rokus/firetvs to speed things up a bit.

Paramount Network +1 may use the old Paramount Network slot on Channel 188. (It been confirmed for Sky).

I'm thinking it would probably be a good idea to make Paramount Network HD-only on VM before Christmas. The moving to 5Spike's slot in January will be more straightforward if they don't happen simultaneously.

I think 5USA is safe as I was told months ago (Also posted by me on this thread) that Viacom was looking at an launch of 5USA HD.

That would be good, leaving only 5SELECT to make the transition to HD.
