I see that the EPG on the frequency has changed. What do you think will be in this new spot,

Note: It has to be a FTA Channel so it is unlikely that Movies will be on

Are you talking about DTT or DTH. On DTH it currently has a place holder stating that

Stratos has ended transmission
For more information, please visit http://www.stratostv.co.nz

Unfortunately this sounds like the most likely option.

TVNZ7 is likely to be a home shopping channel. Like we need more of those. TVNZ one is largely a home shopping channel in the morning already.

I think the correct jargon is 'infomericals'.... like I need someone to tell me my life is empty because I have not got a steam mop. The previous poster is correct, too much hard sell on TV. I guess in the future we can look to internet TV, hopefully pay for content abroad that we actually want. Just got to hope the broadband bandwidth gets better along with the sorts pf data caps you see in other countries.
