My kids don't even really know what a TV channel is. Programmed TVs days are limited.

Same. The idea that you have to watch what's on a channel is completely alien to them. They don't see ads either.

My highlight in terrestrial television this year was The Rugby world cup

Especially the match against Scotland on holiday in PDI with about 30 fabbers in an Irish bar

What an amazing night

We streamed the games. We renovated our house and didn't even put a TV Ariel in. A nice fat fire optic cable is all that's needed.

Agreed but the writers strike did put a hold on lots of shows.

With Netflix and prime, iplayer, itvx etc. Most watch on demand or stream now. As you can get most shows, movies etc all in one place.

It's getting more popular to just stream everything.

Well when you think of the controversies for RTE, it's not surprising. Although even streaming services aren't doing great either.
