@a9800be2 I think it’s there so that they can offer CNN’s on-demand programming within Binge. I suspect that you have to have the live channel in your product to be able to offer on-demand programming, for rights reasons. There is no EPG and logos are deliberately black/white, so as to not be a direct replacement for Foxtel.

I have a Fetch box (I upgraded it yesterday to a newer unit) for live TV. For $6 a month, for the channels I want, it’s pretty good value; and lots of on demand too.
