It's all posturing. Behind the scenes all the companies will be looking for mutually beneficial ways of working together. Virgin's network will now carry some of Sky's back traffic, and Sky have been reselling Bt's network for years. From a TV point of view I have long felt that it would be in Sky's interest to ensure Bt don't become even the second TV operator since from that position they are financially a much bigger threat than Virgin.

But that doesn't mean you should expect Atlantic anytime soon!
