BT are already charging customers who are willing to pay for it though, surely?

If BT win the rights and have to charge customers for PL football, I imagine it will still be cheaper than Sky are charging currently. I know Sky have more sports to offer, but I know a number of people who do not watch golf, tennis, rugby or cricket and only have sports for football. Those fans should, in theory, save money as BT can offer the football at a cheaper price due to the lack of other sporting rights they have not paid for.
