Just imagine if Eurosport got at least one package from Sky (I think its all sold as packages-happy to be corrected) and were to charge for it. Then imagine VM aka LG bartering a "free" deal for said package from Eurosport on XL and VIP. Great value for VM viewers, less so for SS paying customers.

Most probably a pipe dream, but you never know!

On another note, there would be a good market share for Football League (Old division 2-4 - yup showing my age a bit) rights. Many people who are not glory supporters and support their local teams as much as they can afford to, would probably love to watch their team on TV 5-6 times a season.
