Those who had a Premier Sport account that gave access to the website and PS app - can also access the Viaplay website and app. The Viaplay app is also on the Amazon Firestick.
Tonight it is listing 12 live NHL games - where only one is on VM or Sky.

Channel 4 transforms brand to help viewers navigate crowded digital world

Channel 4 today announced that from next year it will bring all its channels and services under one ‘Channel 4’ brand to help audiences better navigate the abundance of choice in the digital world and find their favourite Channel 4 shows wherever and whenever they choose to watch content.

‘All 4’ will change to ‘Channel 4’ as Channel 4 becomes the first UK broadcaster to adopt one brand identity across its digital and linear channels as audiences increasingly no longer distinguish between digital and linear content. Channel 4’s entire portfolio of channels will also align with the ‘Channel 4’ brand.

The brand transformation follows Channel 4’s commitment to prioritise digital growth, place viewers at the heart of its decision-making and renew its relationship with young audiences as part of its Future4 strategy launched two years ago.

As I understand it, your account can only support 360 or V6, not a combination of both.

Correct. They would have to all be converted (and technicians can't do that unless they are specifically booked to do it)

[vincerooney]

Ah cheers both! can we have 3 v6 boxes updated to the 360 box? or would it be one v6 with 360 software and 2 of those odd mini boxes? i dont fancy sharing my storage with my mum and sister haha.

Is the mini box good to avoid lots of wires though? my mum is elderly but doesn't want a box put in her bedroom (even though i think itll be a good idea to future proof...) as she doesn't want tons of white wires going through into her room. the engineer today said it would need wires going through the boxroom, under the carpet, drill a little hole into her wall and then around the door. mum doesn't like wires haha

[spiderplant]

You would have all three boxes converted.

A Minibox has the same wires as a recordable box. (There's a lot of confusion with the Stream box, which doesn't have a co-ax connection, but you can't have one of those if you've already got cable TV)
