If that happened then it will go to the European court and Sky will get a far worse deal than ofcom would give them.
The European court would probably seperate the company into a content and platform division, and make sure that the content was freely available to all platforms for the same price as their own platform would pay. That's something ofcom has no desire to do, so it's in Sky's interests to eventually listen to the ofcom ruling (obviously after delaying it as long as is possible) because the other scenario for them is far far worse.
