This is nothing to do with Virgin 'selling out' or Murdoch trying to dominate the world...its what business is about. Sky see it as commercially a good deal, likewise, Virgin TV saw it as commercially a good deal. END OF STORY. Its what happens in the business world and its not about SKY buying the TV business just to **** off Virgin Cable subscribers.
Some people just cannot see a deal for what it is...just that and with no seedy undercurrent attached
Yep, i will get slated for this....but I'm a realist, not a conspiracy theorist
