Blame that on their flawed strategy of thinking its exclusivity could rival Sky Atlantic whilst not appearing on all platforms as that was a failed non starter from the start.

ITV Encore was meant to be exclusive only for an initial period of broadcasting under the deal with Sky.

People choose their provider best on

Price
Deals
Familiarity

Instead all BT and sky are doing are robbing themselves of advertisement money but they’re in far too deep now they probably feel they’d appear weak accepting the figure from VM they’ve probably rejected 8 billion times

If you want game of thrones that badly there are so many other ways to get it.... silly sky !
