Perhaps Netflix will be free for the first six months for XL customers.
This would give XL customers extra perceived value (people often tend to look at the 'free' headline news and not worry too much about the fact that it's time limited).
VM/Netflix may then hope that either due to customers finding the service invaluable and/or inertia, that they won't cancel when the service becomes chargeable.
