A couple channels I doubt have a long term future are 4Seven and 5 Select. Arguably they are effectively linear equivalents of their catch-up services, All 4 and My5.
Some of the content on these channels could easily be shown on one of their other existing channels, and also I can't recall seeing either channel's listings in the TV magazine I buy. I wonder if eventually these channels will act as placeholders on the Sky/Virgin/FreeSat EPG for their catch-up channels, and cease being linear TV channels.
