Price would be a key factor. Sky Movies collection would cost me £19.50/month or £26.50/month with HD. Netflix/Lovefilm are around £5.99/month so guess would be the VM price as well. Sky may have the most film content but not necessarily all exclusive content and with that price different there is certainly a market for VM to offer a lower cost movies option, while VMs current movie option still provides the Pay As You Go approach which is what I actually prefer myself as don't watch many films since always have loads of series to watch and I have a life to live outside watching TV! Its all about flexibility and conveneince from one box/service.
