So I check the Big TV page after a few months, still surprised its still up to this day.

Here's what I saw which was new:

New Channel: Classic Hits
and
The company has changed its name to Excel Television, however the ''Big'' name in channels remain intact.


The twitter's still up:

What is really weird is that the copyright police haven't caught up on this...

Apparently they’ll have Sky News streaming on their website.

Can’t see Sky wanting to get involved in this crap.

Well, updates to the way YouTube embedder works now means one cannot hide the fact its a glorified YouTube scraper. Just hover your mouse over the video and you'll see the YouTube logo bottom right behind the control panel.

I notice its powered by Viloud.tv, which is fine, but at nearly £40 a month for five "channels" and no monetary generation, somebody's either begged/borrowed/"acquired" a licence from somewhere, or they're happy to pee nearly £500 a year up a wall somewhere out of their own pocket...

When I looked this morning, it was literally a YouTube video embedded in the page. Not via another embedder.
