Agreed, it gives Sky a way of seeing if there is a lot more demand at a lower price without cutting its Movies prices for everyone and then finding it hard to raise its prices again. It's also a way of attracting people who like Netflix's model but don't want to subscribe to an entertainment pack. On the pricing front, the original price for Now Movies was £15.99 per month but Sky obviously decided this was too high and reduced it.
