BS also own channels 176 and 177 on Freeview, I don't understand why they can't use these for extra hours, they must be paying for them and it's not cheap by all accounts.
think its to do with the licences and the amount of hours they can broadcast thats why cant have masti chat and Bs daytime running side by 5:30am ti 11 and why BS daytime xtra has breaks for ad's and the bs day shows finish at 8 instead of 9

As a freeviewer, why would I spend alot of money upgrading my equipment just to get one new babechannel when I could spend the money on sky, and get them all.Just makes the whole thing pointless imo.

Ofcom released their latest licensing update Bulletin today that concerns new licenses granted in December 2012, a Digital freeview licence was granted to a company called "TXT ME TV LIMITED" the service name/channel name will be xxXPanded TV , so it looks like xxXpanded TV will be coming to freeview .

Apparantly there has been problems with the contract so we will have to see what happens with the channel that was going to transmit on Ch179.

They still have to transmit 4 shows simultaneously on one channel since they don't know which one people will be watching. There is still some debate on the digitalspy forum about whether or not an internet connection would be required to do this.
Since it is due to start before Xmas, some more info should now be appearing in the 7/8 day EPG on freeview boxes and TVs, not seen any details yet.
