What about the small retailer? there are not a lot of people up in arms about that.
But I do see it as a sign that sky are trying to flex some more muscle, but again I see it no different to tesco.
I don't think you can really compare the two. Although Tesco may have to odd less than ethical practice, they are in a market that has a lot of true competition.

Sky meanwhile are engaging in these less than ethical practices in order to stop anyone from being able to truely compete with them.
