The other content looks like the same type of documentaries CCXTV had. There are film and sports docs so it's not going to be a music video channel.

Re: Freeview changes

Does anyone still use Freeview ?

I stopped receiving any kind of TV through an aerial about 20 years ago.

I have Sky, Virgin (atm), Freesat & Internet.

Re: Freeview changes

That includes me. I record everything from the HD terrestrials through my aerial/Blu Ray recorder. It helps with the limited capacity on the Virgin boxes.
