You may wish to look at the deal from a large satellite broadcaster which offers many hundreds of channels, including Atlantic, plus box sets and all in HD. At the moment £18pm - which is half price for 12 months. Keep your BB & phone with VM if you wish but if enough non-football fans take up te offer, VM may just decide to offer something similar. Alternatively, you can continue to sub my football habit and I'll continue to sub the 224 channels I never watch for you guys.

Just a thought.
But the BT sports channels are Premium channels, which by definition are add on, extra cost channels.

Everyone only watches a small proportion of the regular channels; that's just the way it is. Comparing Premium channels to non-premium channels is like comparing Apples to Oranges.
