I believe this was the main reason behind BT's purchase of the football rights it also gives them bargaining power when trying to strike a deal for carrying the Sky channels on its Vision platform. BSKYB bought into HBO content for Atlantic to offer its customers , even Netflix have now started to commision some of its own content.
