Whilst my position is that it's Sky's content, they bought it, they should be able to profit from it, I would have to just point out that withholding access from the Virgin cable network hasn't prevented Sky from being competitive in the market for any of the services that Virgin supply by cable. Given that Sky's dominance in the pay TV market has been built on it's Sports output, there is clearly a better argument that the withholding of this content is more damaging to competition than the withholding of access to Virgin's cable network.
