FAST channels

[Jason+Golding]

Anyone think Sky will eventually add FAST channels such as the ones from PLUTO on to the Sky EPG. From this Friday virgin are doing so on their 360 and stream box. They are also adding that’s tv and that’s 60. Both channels would be a welcome addition

It would be up to the channel owners to decide if the additional expense of satellite data transit (paid to the people who run the orbiting infrastructure rather than Sky) is financially viable.  Sky is obliged to provide an EPG slot to any legal channel which pays a standard listing fee.

The Pluto channels are streamed so I don't think they would ever appear on the Sky Q EPG but perhaps the Pluto app could be added. Sky was an early investor in Pluto TV so I am surprised it has never appeared on Sky's platforms (except Now TV boxes).
