The point is that Sky have the money to be able to outbid any other channel if they want to. However, as has already been said, their strategy seems to be that they see how shows perform on other channels then, if they're a big hit, they'll swoop in with a bigger wad of cash and, essentially, nick the show.

Now, in order for fans of Glee to (legally ) see the next season, they either have to spend more money or not see it.
I will agree with you on that , however Sky is a business and they do what they feel is best to strengthen their own channels , whether we think it's right or wrong. At least most VM subscribers who are fans can still watch it ( well anyone on M+ or higher )
