I sincerely hope you are right about Now TV but I wonder what they would use as a point of difference between Satellite & IPTV. The full package with Sky is around £70pm (although every man & his dog seems to be able to get it for around £40pm at the moment) and fully optioned Now TV goes for around £48pm in SD with quite a few channels missing. An HD package would need to be structured so as not to unduly affect the satellite business whilst, at the same time, giving non-Sky customers the incentive to sign-up. I'm sure it could be done and it will be interesting to see if it comes to pass.
