The website shut down in October so not surprising

It was a strange move at a time when MTV, NOW, TRACE channels etc were moving from traditional linear channels to FAST channels, Channel 4 decided to kill of the streamed versions of their channels. With no presentation and running multiple channels from a single computer server, the channels must be as cheap as chips to run. An odd direction to take for an organisation planning to become a "digital first public service streamer".
