You can't blame Sky for seeking a competitive advantage by acquiring sports and American drama rights, merely question why Virgin choose not to compete.

The equivalent for Sky of tesco branded beans at Tesco, would be TV shows made by or funded by Sky, shown only on Sky, not the American cable or network produced shows shown on Atlantic. So your argument isn't valid,

If you could only buy, for example, Domestos from Tesco and no other shop, then you would have a point.
