Lets try not to digress from my original points though please.

Oddly enough I know all companies put their prices up, I do get bills after-all.

My point about Sky is that they should drop Sky Sports bills due to the lack of content. To be clearer, any sports bills that increase will be down to Sky not lowering their sports prices. The increases in sport prices will not be solely down to BT getting rights Sky to content Sky no longer have.

It is up to Sky Sports to pass on savings to sports customers, not jack up the price of PL rights.

Jeez.
It's actually up to Sky Sport to attract customers and make a profit. So far the model of high profile sports rights and expensive subscription packages is a winner so I see no reason why that will change now.

Fwiw it's worth I agree with your ideal, but that is all it is, sadly. And I don't subscribe to Sky Sport either.
