Oh great. I have an adult son with autism and severe learning disabilities who just happens to love watching The Box, Kerrang,4Music, and Kiss  music channels on his Sky Q mini, he doesnt cope well with change and won't  be happy that  these channels are closing next month. Fingers and everything crossed no others will follow suit in the foreseeable future. Unfortunately this happens but he doesnt really understand that.  


There are free alternative options where you can view music videos on Sky Q. You can use the Vevo or Roxi apps, both of which provide channels/playlists of music videos.

I do understand that this will be difficult for you and him. It may be beneficial to record a few hours/shows of each channel, so he can watch them after the channels close. You could also see if someone has a non-Sky free-to-air satellite reciever that records to a memory stick/dongle, and ask them to record the channels on seperate memory sticks and fill them up with the content of each of the 4 channels.

You could also create YouTube Playlists of music videos that are shown on these channels, so he can watch something similar.

Just some ideas. 🙂

@MaccyD221 Any changes that Sky are aware of will be posted accordingly. When Sky knows, we'll know. Simple. If there are no updates for next week, there are no changes.

The fact that Bark TV confirmed for new channel on Channelbox launch plan should include Entertainment genre after Rewind TV may follow suit. 🤔

Why do you expect August updates in the June update post rather than the August update post?

Re: Changes to the Sky TV Guide - June 2024

Hi 

it is just because there has been no testing being conducted by Sky for sky sports + that's why I have put it on this page. I trying to get confirmation if it is a new channel or renaming of a existing channel?.
