Why is that bad & why does it need a review?

Because Sky doesn't just own channels, it owns a distribution platform. The market is regulated to prevent it unfairly disadvantaging the owners of other content delivery platforms (mainly VM). Using a dominant market position to drive competitors out of business is illegal under EU law.
