People can't always receive Freesat for the same reason as not being able to have Sky i.e. you need a dish and a clear view of the sky
I doubt Sky will let them, or they want a set amount no matter how many subscribers which would make pricing it difficult.

You did used to have to pay £1 a month extra for Sky 1 for a while in the NTL days. However I seem to remember when this was suggested again when VM lost Sky Basics they said Sky wouldn't let them have it as a standalone package.
