What happened to Music choice on FM?

[Tod]

Just been looking for the music choice channels on my FM link and they have gone? Anyone know if this is a fault or have they been switched off?

Not a fault,sorry. They were switched off earlier this year.
If you sign up for Broadband Plus,several Music Choice stations are carried on that.

Yep, what you used to get for free (and Sky customers still do, with the option of extra channels at a cost) you now have to pay for.

Seriously though, although I like the idea of streaming the music via the PC, I would prefer to be able to have it either on the FM or at least via the TV.

Have previously worked at Music Choice (quite a few years ago) I know what their product is, and it is superb. The system operating on Sky is very sophisticated, but it looks like NTL are not able to run such an interactive service right now which is a crying shame. Whilst it may not make megabucks in revenue for NTL it will make some and is a great selling point of the service for music lovers.

In January 2002, Sam B, over on .com, said that the MusicChoice channels were cut from the FM service.
