  Question for arts people. We don’t use Freeview as our signal is much more reliable using Apple TV through our internet connection. Is there a way I can get @SkyArts via Apple TV?

  Time for the BBC to close down the BBCNews channel as they always seem to put it on BBC1 at same time WHY as BBCNews is available on sky freesat and freeview you dont need it on BBC1

  @sparry951 @diablik_uk @BENEFITS_NEWS It'll be a slow creep; for many years now some channels on the Freeview EPG have in fact been streamed. Freeview recorders are still readily available for those that want them; if you're using Sky/Virgin etc. you're already NOT using the Freeview service that is 'under threat'.

  @WhichUK For live events, internet speed isn’t everything. For reliability and lowest delay, broadcast TV still wins: Freeview, satellite or cable. Fibre streaming is great but usually behind “live”. 5G/4G/Starlink can work well, but depend more on signal, congestion and load.

  @BBC I hear that Freeview is being turned off at some point in the future. Well you will lose my payment for the TV licence as that's how I watch TV & if you get rid then I won't be able to watch & I'll cancel my licence. Not a very clever decision to make is it?

• 
  Mr Mega Dump (@ChestneyS) reported 13 minutes ago

  @darrengrimes Nothing decided yet so I’ll wait until it actually happens before deciding to cancel my subscriptions or not. Tv companies are losing customers right left and centre due to the constant inflation plus 3.9%. I’m seriously looking at just getting a freeview box and a “fire stick “

  @Itinerantguy It's a corporate circle jerk that never ends. They just give awards to themselves though circuitous routes. Only the retards with freeview still believe anything that comes from their pursed anuses. Sadly, there are a LOT of retards with freeview.

  @SheLovesTweets @theipaper Freely TV's are the same as Freeview and Freesat, the problem is Internet only doesn't take into account people who live in blackspots and barely get anything much better than old school dial up. Nor does it account for anyone who doesn't want/have broadband.

  @cyclingontnt When are the highlight programmes available on HBO Max? I see them on freeview on DMAX at 7pm, but never available on HBO Max other than a 10 min compilation?It's not possible to get the DMAX show on catch up so it's quite poor compared to before moving to HBO.

  Dystopian. The UK gov paper for alternative and social media censorship in the name of protecting “trustworthy” news platforms makes for chilling reading. Lisa Nandy’s Dep for culture, media and sport’s censorial propositions are yet another attempt to protect the establishment from the people. Read it for yourself - “People are increasingly accessing news online, rather than through more regulated spaces like Freeview on their TV sets. This is weakening the ability of trustworthy news providers to reach audiences and shape informed public debate.” The word “trustworthy” here is Orwellian. They mean by it news acceptable to the regime. Mainstream media is not trustworthy in the eyes of the public, for good reason. “Overall trust in UK news has dropped, and only 45% of adults feel confident judging whether a source is truthful. This rise in untrustworthy news and corresponding decline in trust in news pose a risk to the public’s ability to access accurate information.” This is the fault of mainstream media. They have been blatantly biased for decades. The response to the rise in alternative media is for MSM to try and become more truthful, less biased, and honest to the public AND THEMSELVES about their bias. And certainly NOT to censor or throttle alternative media. “[Social media] makes it more difficult for trustworthy news providers to find, maintain and monetise an audience, with repercussions for the commercial viability of public interest journalism.” I.e. regime interest journalism If mainstream media is to be saved it needs to drastically improve its product, and focus on youtube and social media as outlets, it needs to adapt to the media market not try and make the media market adapt to them. How is it that they are so lacking in self-awareness? Ultimately this is a war they can’t win. The question is - how long will it go on. And what damage will be done along the way.

  @iggy1966 @BENEFITS_NEWS They don't really, Chris... However the 'Freely' service currently being touted to replace Freeview in about 15 years time IS a streamed service which WILL be available via set top boxes/inbuilt IP provision in TV sets and probably an 'App'.
