How long do you see BT Sports being free with BT BB for ?

I felt their was a need to roll my eyes MM. I get fed up with the whole paying extra topic. If I knew how to add multiple quotes, I would have done so. I should have added other peoples names to my post, so I apologize for not adding those names and rolling eyes at them too.
I personally can see BT Sports being free for many, many years. There are many different companies people can get BB from, probably at lower prices (or through half price for new customers etc) than BT will offer. BT Sports and ESPN is a fantastic USP for sports fans. The report on the BBC states the key for them is to grow BB and later on it states they made pre-tax profits of £948 million for a six month period. This strategy is clearly not hurting them, so why change it?
They also state they will not be charging for PL football for existing BB customers (I imagine they will offer a new deal at the start of each PL season for non-existing BB customers) and will only be charging for some CL football. Again, the "free" PL appears to be working for them, so why change it?
I dare say this seems a very simply argument, but I just can not see BT changing what appears to be a beneficial promotional activity.
