Thanks for that tip, PB.

Sky also makes money through wholesale deals for it's channels on VM , Now TV is a product aimed generally at Freeview homes for those users who don't want long term contracts.
It benefits VM because it lessens the desire by some to go over to Sky and it benefits Sky, who get additional income.

Additionally, if VM could boast a whole range of streaming services via its TIVO box, that would act as VM's unique selling point.
