Read this: The Guide #213: Should we mourn the demise of TV channels? | Culture | The Guardian
Summary: The article questions if we should mourn the disappearance of traditional TV channels in the streaming age. It notes the decline of appointment viewing, highlighted by MTV shutting music channels and a major slump in the 9 pm ratings slot. The author argues that channels once provided distinct identities and implicit trust, guiding viewers to content like Channel 4's comedies. Today, broadcasters' streaming platforms, like iPlayer, pool all programming together, making the content feel "formless" as they chase Netflix's model. This shift erodes the channel as a cultural curator, which the author feels is a loss, comparing channels at their best to respected film studios and record labels. - www.theguardian.com
