I watch Qvc on Roku streaming. This morning I noticed it is now Qvc and Hsn. Just a new observation.

I wonder if we will see less and less difference between the two?

@cherry   I think we already are seeing the "twinning" of these two channels.  The main difference IMO is going to be which location is more convenient for the guest vendors to visit.

Not much I DVR on the Q, but used to do a lot of it on HSN.  My only interests are things that are practical and actually perform a function. 

Now those presentations are very few in comparison to other items. So much so that I now rarely record much on HSN. Seems to be more "things you wear" or something to make you thinner or help you look 50 years younger.

Don't know if Q programming has changed, but HSN sure has.

Seems as if there's a majority of people who are living to be someone other than who they are.  Someone younger, thinner, better looking, dressed like some TV personality.

I noticed that today on my Roku service as well @traveler .  They are one combined Roku channel now.  What I like very much is that the channel is formatted somewhat like the Program Guide online here.  It tells you what show & host is currently on-air, on all the various QVC and HSN channels, so you can make a choice before selecting a channel.  I used to go back & forth to see what was on 6 different channels before landing on what I was interested in seeing.

And, IMO, not for the better!  Picking up all the bad points of the Q, e.g., fewer sales, higher s&h, etc.  Too bad!

HSN is now using the same bank as QVC. It is probably only a matter of time they will be advertised as one.

@traveler 

Are you referring to the fact that the QVC app now carries a lot of previously recorded HSN shows as well as their own? If so, that started a while back. What I just noticed was that the HSN shows no longer state “HSN” as part of their title.

Bad stuff. The parent company is destroying both children. It is like a slow poison.

When I click on the Qvc box to stream, it now comes up as Qvc  Hsn , then I click on QVC. I never watch Hsn so it took me by surprise.
