Well why didn't they charge for ESPN? They could've quite easily, as Sky did. We can only assume that by adding ESPN to TV XL, they gained enough new customers to cover the cost of aquiring ESPN and to allow them to provide it "free".
IMHO, I think they could make a similar move with BT Sports, but just not free like ESPN was. However, if they can resell it cheaper than Sky then that could certainly be an incentive for exisiting customers to move up to TV XL, or bring some new customers over.
