I don't expect VM to get btsport and I have given my reasons why in previous posts. I really wouldn't hold your breath. It certainly won't be free for VM customers. If BT do agree to allow carriage on VM then they will expect full subscription for it, they categorically WILL NOT allow VM to get it away free, it would not make any commercial sense to do so. If BT were to do this, they would effectively be giving away control of their own sports channel.
VM will not be able to afford to take a £12 hit for every XL subscriber.
As soon as I can get Infinity, I am moving and taking BB, phone and Youview with BT.

If it is going to be on VM i cant see it being free, i see it being same cost as Sky customers

That's not right mate. VM is a closed platform. Their card numbers do not have conditional access. Sky does, so BT can retail directly to Sky customers.
