24, Homeland, This Is Us, Madam Secretary, American Horror Story, Empire, The Americans. The Good Wife, The X Files - they have a lot of this content already.
Not to mention all the quality Australia drama they have produced over the years
Sounds like an X rated porn channel. 
I think they should just switch One to Twelve and then just have:
Ten
Eleven
Twelve
That works better. TEN HD can be slotted into channel 1.

Yes, but a lot of that content is reserved for the main channel.
Nah, Ten something is better because itâd give WIN/Bruce G the shits!

Ten
Ten HD
Ten Hit or Ten CBS - youth orientated plus classic comedies
Ten World - action, adventure and drama content
The Watermarking and Cover Up⢠department in Wollongong will have something to say about that!
In all seriousness I think WIN would be more likely to have a fourth channel before Ten does. Nine, ABC and even SBS all have four channels (not counting HD/data casting), Seven has five if you count RACING.COM. Ten still only has three
I guess WIN could do a reverse program supply agreement and supply content for a fourth channel to Ten?

I always thought this was the case.

If anything, itâs arguable that Ten canât properly sustain three channels at the moment let alone four!

Or even get HD right on their main channel.

Surely thereâs another Scripps channel looking for a FTA slot? Youâd think Ten would be willing to sell off a portion of their bandwidth to other providers to make some money.
Spree/TVSN canât be the only uses they can find to monetise it?

I think they are only allowed to have 2 datacasting channels.
Aside from not being true, what has that got to do with anything?

Means that TVSN and Spree are considered a datacast service, not a primary eg. Ten or secondary channel eg.1 or 11, and my understanding is that commercial networks are only allowed to operate 2 of these datacasting channels.
Why does it have to be a datacast channel. 9Life isnât a datacast and thatâs a Scripps outlet. Could Ten do a similar deal even with One or a new channel? It doesnât have to be Scripps there could be other potential content partners out there.
Ten is only allowed two datacasting channels as they only have two datacasting licences for each of their five metro licences. But there is nothing stopping them applying for more datacasting licences, unless you can point to something in the Broadcasting Services Act that states otherwise.
It was more in response to @Moe suggesting that TEN sell off bandwidth to a content provider.
These have traditionally been those datacasting services, but I guess there is nothing stopping a community station like TVS in Sydney paying TEN some $$$$ to get say 3 M/bits of bandwidth and get back on the air?
Or even say FOXTEL paying TEN to put say FOX8 on their terrestial service (kinda like the commercials paying FOXTEL to be on their satellite or cable service).

If a Foxtel channel ends up as Tenâs 4th channel odds are it will be Sky News.

I am surprised ten donât sell that channel to a bravo or something like what happened in NZ.

The problem with this or any cable channel appearing on FTA are program rights. Half the content on FOX8 wouldnât be allowed to screen on FTA (ie Family Guy).
Not to mention program classification restrictionsâŚ
