Again, I ask, did you actually READ my posts?
I gave the reasons, you have yet to counter them.

....are not the be all and end all of everything. Not everything follows a "normal curve of distribution". Even if they did, you would have to see the leaving rate go down before you could say you'd reached a peak. We are still way too early in this for any level numbers to have statistical significance.

That's a possibility. From a personal perspective, all I watch on Sky one is the Simpsons, Futurama and Star Terk repeats anyway. However, as 95% of the cable channels I never watch at all, that's still a fair bit.
I'll miss Sky Sports News on a Saturday afternoon more than anything.

With Sky One being so bad these days, a shadow of its former self, I don't think it will be a case of absence makes the heart grow fonder, more a case of absence makes the heart forget.

Possibly. But I'm noticing other problems since Virgin Media took over. TV on demand is now hopelesly unreliable, Virgin Central is crap, the TV guide at the bottom of the screen regularly sticks to one channel becoming useless and hold times to customer services are worse than ever (even worse than they were in the old Cable & Wireless days). On top of all that, my broadband seems to be slowing down as well.
It may be teething problems, it is early days yet. But I have had cable TV since the Nynex days, and so far, I'm singularly unimpressed with Virgin Media.
