Which is exactly why VM should have Now TV access on their boxes. Yes, we would pay more, and directly to Sky, but those of us with the wherewithal do that anyway. So much better if all of our streaming services were on one box instead of via numerous devices.

That's true, but it's all smoke and mirrors. Some say that Sky want to keep SA exclusive whereas others say Sky are simply charging too much for the channel.

Who knows what the truth is...
