Sky Store redsign

I've asked this here since I don't know if this is a Sky Store issue across the range, or peculiar to Glass and Stream. I'll admit I've not used Store for a while. Just not had the time. Went into it a few days ago to watch one of my past purchases and found the layout changed. Could have happend a year ago for all I know to be honest. Now I've got to scroll all the way to bottom of a lot of sales pitches to get to my purchases that I've already paid money for. Is there a shortcut method for getting to them, or any hope at all of them moving that section button back to the top of the page? Shouldn't be this many button presses to find stuff I've already bought.

I pointed this out months ago that it was no longer user friendly.

The way around it is to either use your voice to find the purchase you want or if you don't like the voice control feature then press the Sky home button, then Playlist, the Sky Store purchases, you get to things quicker than the new *ahem* improved design.

I don't know who gave the approval for the redesign but it's clear user friendliness wasn't the main consideration taken into account when doing it.

Ok, I am late to this party as I suspected. But at least it's not just me. Yeah, it is horrible now. Fine, push new content on me but at least make it simple, and easy, to find stuff I've already spent money on. Not a fan of this redesign. It's like the way Amazon are making it harder to find the apps you have installed on your Fire devices while they push more "buy buy buy" at you.
