I don't understand what 401-Main Event is supposed to be, is it just going to show something that is on live on another channel?.

As I say many have been paying £13.75 for all Sky Sports on half price discount why would they pay £18 for just one channel.

Actually, it might be less £49.50 with the TV channels?

The new package of ten channels and an unrivalled schedule of live sport is available for the same price (£27.50 per month), which will remain frozen for 12 months. Existing customers will receive the new Sky Sports package automatically and the new channels will replace the existing line-up.

For the first time, Sky Sports will also offer something for fans not looking for the full breadth of sports, but are interested in specific sports. The new line-up is designed to grow this customer base and offers flexibility to subscribe to individual channel packages at a new price. One channel pack will be available for just £18 per month, two for £22 and three for £26.

Sky and Virgin are very good with the art of deception and confusement when it comes to their prices.

I wonder whether this will trickle down to Now TV, could be even more attractive on there as long as they keep it cheaper than through the main services.

Sky Sports Mix is moving to channel 121 on sky this slot is currently held by Sky Arts HD

I've noticed the press release says Sky Sports News rather than Sky Sports News HQ

No increase on the complete Sky Sports bundle at £27.50 , I wouldn't be shocked if they start price increases on the Entertainment packs thus meaning everyone has to pay it.
