Re: Virgin in talks with Power firms
I think the fact that they were small franchises is what hurt cable the most, none were big enough to do what Sky were doing and all were happy to pay to get access to Sports and Movies at someone elses risk taking. I am sure Sky was glad to sell everything to cable back then as well as they would have been providing cash to set up all these channels and deals.

Kind of makes you wonder now that Virgin are out of the brodcast game will this let Sky get even more ahead?
