4Seven EPG data (UK)

For those in the UK, I've raised a Connect ticket to request proper EPG data for the new 4Seven channel that launched this week across all platforms.

I know in band data is available, but it would be nice to have the proper data. Not that I actually expect this will happen...

And to my utter amazement, it's done! 4Seven now shows up and has a full set of data.

Errr.. yeah, about those...

As I won't be watching even 24 seconds of those 24 channels, I've not done anything about them. I predict they will come and go without Media Centre knowing anything about them.

That must be our tax pounds at work - Auntie giving MS a kickback!

I'm way too cynical these days :)
