You do have a hand to play, you have viewer numbers (for advertising) and money.
VM's argument for selling the channels was that its channels did not drive subscriptions whereas faster speeds and a bigger network do drive subscriptions. LGI does own stakes in some content businesses - 50% of All3Media, 100% of TV3 in Ireland and 9.9% of ITV so things may change here in the future.
