"Sky's deals with the major Hollywood studios – Disney, Warner Bros, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Sony Pictures and Universal Studios – come up for renewal in 2017 and 2018."
"Analysts at IHS put the total value of Sky's movie deals at between £300m and £350m a year."
Imagine how much Netflix would need to bid in 4 years time to try and wrestle those rights away. It's going to be real expensive. SKY are paying out almost £30m a month on movie rights to the studios.
