[London Lite]

In the early days of Freeview, my friend who lived in South Wales at the time moved from London and realised the only way she could watch Channel 4 was through Freeview, so was one of the early adopters of the Pace box which gave her C4 in addition to S4C and a wider range of channels.

Fast forward to the near future and a Freely STB could do a similar thing for those in Freeview Lite areas or for those fed up with poor picture quality from the over compressed DTT muxes who want a much improved range of streaming channels. If we end up with one HD and one SD mux, Freely will become an essential tool in ensuring Freeview homes don't lose their line-up.

As for the Glass/Stream comparisons. This is Sky's way of gradually getting existing customers while new customers are offered Stream as default as a move away from linear distribution via Astra. The launch of Glass before using the Puck as Stream is a way of getting more money out of their customers who already spend a lot of money on the tv sub with some already with Sky Broadband and Sky Mobile. Stream also opened up a new market for Sky for those in rented accommodation or where they're not allowed to add a dish because the building is under a preservation order.
