Virgin should be forced to open the network that passes more than 50% of UK households.

Except, there is nothing stopping Sky investing in their own fibre network to give customers 100Mbit broadband.
However sports rights are a single shot thing. It's impossible for Sky's rivals to offer the same service at the same time as Sky - so they have to buy Sky's channels.
