I think it might be dangerous for BskyB to assume that witholding channels from other carriers will result in increased business for BskyB?

For example, preventing VirginMedia from carrying any BskyB content would likely result in my preference shifting to Freeview, I don't have sports channels subscribed, I wouldn't miss the movie channels, and there are other ways to access content from Sky1???

- In my opinion they have to work out a way to compete, but still co-operate, otherwise they could both start losing subscribers???
