I'm guessing what happens next will be Channel 4 [ENC] moves to 10729V and E4+1 [ENC] moves to 10714H.
That would leave 12304H with just the music channels. We've seen a transponder popping up with just those channels on it, a couple of times.
Time will tell - and Channel 4 seems to have plenty of time.
