Unless of course they changed their policy. Although it is always wise to look to the past and the present to predict the future, we should never rule out fundamental change.

There is absolutely nothing that I can see that would prevent VM from offering streaming services free or at a greatly reduced price on the top package to encourage viewers to pay top whack. However, by excluding that package from other viewers on lower packages, the attraction of the wholesale deal to the likes of Netflix would be diminished. That would have consequences for any deal made with VM.
