Cheryl vid - aaah so not just me then (rollseyes)
Decide channels - no idea here - I presume possibly goes with what they might interest the viewer?
Smooth Radio - listened to it a few times its OK
Oh yeah forgot to mention this I noticed 4Music advertising a new programme called "brave new girl" (I may have title wrong) but its about a Transgender - I am getting more confused by 4Music at night these days!”
Doesn't seem like they are bothered. Jessie J's new on is on there today, about a week after everyone else and they are making a point of it being a new video.
Interest the viewer? When did they last think of the viewer?
Seen the advert for Jenna....more trash. Which reminds me, when I first saw Rita Ora, I thought she was a transexual

Entertainment channels. 4Music can get away with being in the music section more than Viva can

The whole situation as well as what these channels are meant to be needs a major overhaul thats for sure.
On VM MTV/BET are roughly in same area so why not then move VIVA/4Music in this area then be simpler then if "music" is not there thing?”
Viva is 357 on Sky, 4Music is 360 - Music channels run continuously from 350 to 372, then 374,376,378,383,385,386,387,388, so they are firmly inside the music channel listings.
My Channel plays music too - usually a top 10 - one of the channels, My Channel or Showcase? play Heyday - today was Whitesnake amongst others.
