Sky is rewarding loyal customers with a special TV channel
Every major TV provider is worried about subscriber churn, or the number of people cancelling their package to save money or switch to a rival service. For the longest time, Sky has countered this trend with content, snapping up the rights to "unmissable" sports, movies and TV shows. Now, however, it's launching a loyalty programme too. Sky VIP offers different rewards depending on how long TV and broadband customers have kept their package. New subscribers, for instance, start on silver, unlocking a free Sky Store Buy & Keep movie and access to VIP ticket prize draws.
Amazon's next video original is a smash British TV series
Netflix isn't the only streaming service that can snap up a popular British TV show. Amazon has revealed that season two of Fortitude, Sky's well-received Arctic thriller, will be one of its original series. It'll be available on BBC Two in the UK, but you'll need to head to Prime Video to watch in the US. The story revolves around its namesake community, where parasites and pathogens run rampant -- suffice it to say that a sheriff's disappearance and a dead body are just the start of the town's troubles. Dennis Quaid and Game of Thrones' Richard Dormer are the most recognizable stars.
