@CJK+Mobile+Acc I'm not sure what your expecting on channel 179 as there is not 179 on Glass, not all channels are available on Glass/Stream as per this channel list.

These are the channels NOT available on Glass https://www.sky.com/help/articles/tv-channel-list-sky-glass#not-available

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

@CJK+Mobile+Acc

At last count there were something like 125 channels (excluding Radio and +1 services) which are on the satellite EPG but not on Glass/Stream. It's up to those channels to decide if it's economically viable to put in place the technical and logistical infrastructure to be carried on a streaming-only service.

Apparently the sky engineer who fitted my new broadband said they will be adding the other channels soon. Apparently

@Samuel_Tily

All Sky owned channels are present, and have been from launch in October 2021. It's up to the owners of the other channels whether or not to participate: Sky cannot force them to do so and some (particularly minority interest services based overseas) may well never choose to be on board.

@TimmyBGood Disagree with your view here. The ball is very much in skys court not the broadcaster. Look at virgin stream, all the minority channels are present on their platform
