Maybe other platforms simply cannot afford to offer it. DF's comments were interesting on that point.
I have nothing further to add, if you indeed find evidence it is being withheld I am really interested to know as it will clear up all sorts of misunderstandings about THAT press release.

I really don't know where you are going with this Mersey. If you believe that Sky are not deliberately keeping the channel as an exclusive then you are the only one I have seen in any forum who thinks that. In fact you might be the only one in the country.
If they are negotiating then Stuart Murphy shouldn't be announcing it as an exclusive weeks before the channel starts broadcasting. The adverts wouldn't be saying exclusive. Also Sky would be saying what they said during the Sky basics dispute "we are still negotiating". Even on twitter Sky are telling cable customers it's not going to launch on VM.
