Umm. Rrright. You are aware Tiscali are currently rolling out IPTV, including Sky's channels, nationwide yes? You are also aware that in Central London there are well over 2 million homes to which Tiscali TV is available. They also offer TV, broadband and phone. Correct me if I'm wrong but that would make them a competitor to Sky?
Yes.... same products... same markets... in competition... a competitor!

What is quoted in the press and what was actually offered could be completely different.

Doubt it. Out and out lying when evidence is in black and white is very stupid. Considering how VM have made sure this stayed in the press as much as possible if what was in the press was inaccurate I'm fairly sure the VM PR department would have made sure we knew.

EDIT: It is also possible this deal is needed by Sky in order to satisfy disgruntled advertisers who lost a large customer base when Sky pulled (yes, sky pulled) the channels off VMTV.

*Sigh* Nice anti-Sky comment, kinda blows trying to discuss something impartially out of the water coming out with something like that though.
