Where there's a will, there's a way! I don't really know how it would work, but I would guess Sky would only need to know your VM card number to add to their "approved list".

Well, that's where it's open to debate as the announcement doesn't clarify what exactly Sky would use their allowance for. It only mentions network capacity, which as we know in VM land means it can carry broadband, live TV and on demand content.
