It wont make any difference, thats like a TV Producer selling his content to Sky Atlantic and then saying "oh id like to see your channel on Virgin", unless they said "we wont sell you the rights unless you become available on Virgin" nothing is likely to happen.
The Rugby Parliamentary Group are just using the letters M & P to make the story appear to be a powerful message in the hope customers will get angry at VM for not making it available.

I suspect you're right, especially as I've just learned that the games relevant to most people will be shown on the BBC.

The sky talks referred to don't seem to mention Pick TV+1, does anybody know if this channel is included in the negotiations?
It must be cheap (or even a freebie bundled in with other channels) to give to VM, whilst giving the FTA channel an advertising boost.
I know it's normally full of rubbish, but I would find it useful for recording some overnight programming that clashes.
