Recording sky stream on a stand alone device

[TeamBeans]

Except your F1 playlist items are not in 5.1 surround sound when the live broadcast was, and your Sky+ recordings would have been.

That makes a difference for those of us who have invested in setups which benefit from surround sound.

I hate not being able to record as used to watch on my IPad There is no playlist option on IPad  I feel these changes were made to make Sky more profit and not for the sake of the customer

It's because the current Go app is a legacy of Sky when it was an independent British company, and Glass/Stream is a Comcast Corporation platform released after they purchased Sky Group in 2018.  I suspect that once the end of Sky Q is finally announced, Go will transition to the Comcast app which is already in use in the USA.

And yes, generally businesses do aim to make money: the thirty billion pounds which Comcast paid for Sky is a bit of a clue there.

Because that is not everyone experience. Has already pointed out sometimes the full match is changed to a highlights only. Happens in both football and NFL.

Quite possibly: the content belongs to the rights owners, not the distributing platform or the subscriber.  Owners get to choose the format and duration in which their product is made available.
