They've never been king of content, and they never will be. Sky will always win that one.
For a while, the were king of on demand, but lost that title to Sky when Sky got their act together on that.
But king of content is not everything, and VM are hardly lacking in content; HBO being the only significant absence, which VM are powerless to do anything about.
Pretty much every other aspect of VM is far superior to Sky's in my view and those requiring HBO content can always take out a Now TV sub. Not ideal as it requires extra expense, but sadly we live in a world of exclusive content deals. Networks such as HBO would rather make more money by doing exclusive deals than give a larger number of paying customers access.
