Unfortunately Sky has always had deeper pockets than cable in the past so has been able to get to the actual content quicker. Also having a single technical platform has helped - rather than the 3 different ones Virgin have had to contend with.
Not to mention the fact that Sky has shown an amazing ability to just abandon old platforms and technologies..
