I do believe it will come unlike SA, the content themselves (PL, Rugby) will not be too chuff they are being used as a political weapon in broadband, their interest is to be seen by many people as possible
This is different to sky SA where content provider HBO Would like this as creates interest to buy directly from them I.e. blu ray and DVD, ask yourself this are you more likely to get GoT box set because you heard its good or copy of a 2-0 game that was on saturday afternoon. I love my sport but I bought season 1&2 of GoT as it was the only way I coud see it and I don't regret and I'm sure HBO are happy I got it this way as well.
I know this creates the debate of who wants what but if we look from the other spectrum in terms of provide of content as above who got more to lose?
That's why I believe BT (or at least the option to obtain )will be there before start of both rugby and PL

I disagree about
"the content themselves (PL, Rugby) will not be too chuff they are being used as a political weapon in broadband, their interest is to be seen by many people as possible"
If that was their intention, they would not have sold to the highest bidder. they could easily have chosen a lower price, if more people were guaranteed to see their product.
But, they were shouting "show us the MONEY!, showwww us the MONEYYY!"
