Sky are opening up sky Atlantic to different customers now. It would make sense for it to come to virgin media now

Whether it does is another thing
I think you can read this in two ways though. This gives Sky another route for viewers to get Sky Atlantic, and keeping it away from VM could be seen as even more likely. It also lessens the rumbling of uncompetitive behaviour - there is not a contract-less way of getting Sky Atlantic - along with a good selection of other channels.
