That's true, I can't fathom why they can't go 24/7 on there as an SD channel in the same way as Talking Pictures, Keep It Country etc.

If there's a problem with doing this, you'd think that they'd become a Freeview internet channel.

Talking of KIC, i'm surprised that they haven't appeared on VM yet as they seem to be on every other platform. Many niche/poorer channels have been joining VM alately, so (although I haven't been able to obtain any info. one way or the other), I think that VM must be offering such channels more favorable conditions to meet customer demands for eg Freeview channels to come to the platform so that we can access/record them all on the one STB.

Edit:. Out of interest, would anyone here welcome a country music channel? It's not really my cup of tea, but I do keep hearing a fair few people say that they still miss Country Music Television (CMT) (I think Viacom own it these days).

Was this ever on cable? I had satellite back in the nineties.
