@Anonymous the channels on Glass are exactly the same as those on Stream. What you receive depends on your Sky TV subscription (whether you've included Sky Cinema or Sky Sports for example).

Neither Glass nor Stream currently has all the channels that are available on Sky Q, but those that are missing are specialist. See this thread for what people currently think of the latest Gen2 version of Sky Glass: https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky-Glass-Live/You-ve-received-your-Sky-Glass-Gen-2-what-are-your-thoughts-on-how-it-performs/td-p/4910228/jump-to/first-unread-message

I'd suggest Glass can do more than your streaming Puck as it's a TV not simply a set top box as your Puck is.

Even the smallest (43") Gen 2 Glass television should be a considerable improvement on that for image and audio, although note Android TV has a much wider range of apps.

I have moved from Stream to Gen 2 and it is seemless. Everything works as before apart from a few extra voice commands and the motion sensor.

I am not sure if that question was to me but if you are asking "Is a 55" Sky Glass Gen 2 an improvement on a 32" Bush with Stream?" the answer is a resounding yes. Your subs will automatically change to the Glass so unless you want to add Whole Home to use your Stream in another room your sub should stay the same.
