Virgin would be extremely stupid to sell them to Sky at any price. They would be completely at the mercy of a company that runs not only the most successful pay-TV delivery platform, but also the most successful channels. Virgin would be left with only a delivery platform, and totally reliant on its major competitor to provide any decent content to show on it.
