Nice one, thanks for this, cj. At least it indicates that Liberty want this to happen. We just need to wait for Amazon's response now, I guess.

Unfortunately, even once this is agreed between them, as I'm sure they will, I think there is a lot of work to be done in bringing this to our Tivo boxes. Next year at the earliest, I think, but something to look forward to.

Sky won't really have a say in it Dave if the programmes come through Amazon or HBO directly, but unfortunately it will be via pay per view or buy.

Amazon already have HBO shows ready to stream.

To clear this up once and for all and this is in the memo recieved. SKY only own exclusive to the first run airing rights to HBO content, they also own the first run on demand content except for pay per view services such as Amazon, Blinkbox etc. As Amazon have HBO ppv content then it is certainly possible for it to show up on VM.
VM could get airing rights if they come to an agreement with Sky on Sky Atlantic, however nothing has been agreed regarding this.
Hope this clears all this "no chance" rubbish up once and for all or "sky atlantic is coming soon" rubbish too.

True Blood had been wrapped up by FX in 2008 for the life of the series.

"Sky has signed a deal to buy all of American cable channel HBO's new programming. Sky also secured the rights to a number of HBO's archived shows. However, FX has now announced that it still owns the exclusive pay TV and first-run rights for the life of series of True Blood. The news means that the show cannot be aired on other pay TV channels until FX's licence expires."

And presumably, if the Amazon deal comes off, VM can then turn to Sky and say, "Actually we don't want or need Atlantic, since we can get the shows through Amazon."
